Jurisprudence

A driver who fatally injured Olympic swimming gold medalist Victor Davis in 1989 was sentenced to 10 months in jail by a Montreal judge who called the driver a “callous coward.”

Davis, who set an Olympic breaststroke record at the Games in 1984, died of brain injuries after being struck and hurled nearly 50 feet by a car driven by 21-year-old Glen Crossley.
