    Overview

    COMPLAINT# 20140876524

    The

    evidence,

    information, and

    other data led me to conclude:

    On September 20.2014 between 2230 and 2245 James R Bironas left his home at 101 Loring Court. Driver 1 then

    drove east on Battery Lane between Loring Court and Franklin Pike.

    At

    that intersection he was met by a group

    of

    people driven by Mr. Spencer Lathrop in a car to his left. Both parties turned left to Franklin Pike and according to the

    other party Driver I chased them on northbound Franklin at speeds of

    up 110

    miles an hour." The members of this

    party assert Driver followed them as far as Acklen Avenue. On southbound Franklin Pike between 2250 and 2303

    on September 20. 2014 Ms. Cynthia Wilde observed Driver 1 following them. According to Ms. Wilde's statement

    Driver l passed them going west on Battery Lane. Prior to the crash Driver I drove in the curve east

    of

    the crash site

    at a speed of 73 miles per hour. traveled west on the north shoulder of Battery Lane for approximately 236 feet. struck

    a tree, rotated counterclockwise. and came to final rest in the creek bed below. According to statements from MNFD

    EMS Cameron Myers Driver 1 was dead

    on

    the scene but they transported him to VUMC because he was treated

    inside the ambulance. The Report

    of

    the Davidson County Medical revealed Driver 1 died from blunt force injuries.

    The toxicology report indicated a blood alcohol level of .218% and a controlled substance (diazepam) level of 9 ng/ml

    blood. The level of diazepam was less than the therapeutic level for the drug as listed

    on

    the Winek Toxicology Data

    Table (2001). The cause of the crash was Driver l 's failure to maintain the proper lane and exceeding the posted

    speed limit. This case is now closed.

    COMPLAINT# 20140876524

    On Saturday the

    20th

    day of September 2014 at 2354 hours I was notified

    of

    an apparent single vehicle, single

    occupant, DOA, and non-prosecutable fatal crash on Battery Lane at Dustin Lane. When

    I

    arrived on September

    21st

    2014 at 0039 hours

    I

    observed Officer Johnson and SGT Lovell on the scene gathering information with

    Field CPT Starling and SGT Pachciarz. I observed a white GMC SUV (Vehicle

    I)

    on the creek bank on the north

    of he roadway with airbags deployed and the seatbelt in a worn position.

    I

    observed a deciduous tree on the north shoulder of he roadway south of Vehicle 1. This tree was damaged

    with at least one limb missing as if it was struck by Vehicle 1. The body

    of

    the deceased, James R. Bironas, was

    removed from the scene and was transported to VUMC.

    I

    walked east from the tree and located a surface void.

    Approximately 113 feet east ofthis void

    I

    located a 123 foot 8.34 inch scrape running parallel to the roadway.

    Vegetation was pushed to a northwest position. This was the best evidence

    of

    a path

    of

    event travel for Vehicle 1.

    Officer Augustine was present and gathered other information pertinent to the crash. Officer Johnson and

    I

    mapped the crash and once we completed this we began the recovery.

    Officer Bell

    ofthe

    DUI unit was at VUMC with the deceased (Driver 1) and was met there by Officer Smith

    ofPatrol. Officer Bell detected no sign

    of

    intoxication in the form of odor. Officer Smith and Lieutenant

    Gilliland maintained security at VUMC after Officer Bell left.

    I learned of a call which was initiated by one Rachel Bradshaw (Driver 1 s spouse) which was filed under

    complaint number 20140876787. At 2340 on September

    20th

    2014 Ms. Bradshaw notified Emergency

    Communications her husband was missing. The text of the call gave details ofhis absence which allegedly began

    at 2140 hours. The originating address was 104 Loring Court which is less than .5 miles from the crash scene.

    Ms. Bradshaw filed a Matter ofRecord Incident Report for the missing status which listed the incident date and

    time as September 20

    1

    h

    2014 at 2230. On September 26th 2014 at 1220

    I

    spoke with Ms. Bradshaw. She advised

    that her last actual siting

    of

    Driver 1 was between 2145 and 2200 at 104 Loring Ct. when he claimed to

    be

    going

    to bed. She stated she was unsure of the actual time because everything seemed ''normal" prior to his retiring for

    the night. Ms. Bradshaw furnished me with the passcode to Driver

    l

    s Phone to which

    I

    obtained a search

    warrant. Ms. Bradshaw can be reached at 615.305.6556.

    Ms. Jenna Pate was a visitor at Driver s residence and was present with Driver 1 and his spouse when

    Driver 1 left Loring Court. She stated the last time she saw Driver 1 at the residence was when he retired and she

    estimated that time was between 2235 and 2240. Ms. Pate can be reached at 615.987.1407.

    Another report was made by Mrs. Cynthia Wilde

    of

    Driver 1 attempting to force her vehicle off

    of

    the

    roadway as she drove on Franklin Road southbound near Caldwell. She stated that between 2245-2300 Driver

    I

    swerved toward them and forced them to shift left. Her passenger (Jamison Wilde) wrote Driver 11ooked at

    Cynthia "like he thought he knew her." Mr. Wilde stated they accelerated past him and came to the intersection

    at Battery where they were stopped by a red traffic signal. Mr. Wilde advised Driver

    I

    got close to them and

    gunned his engine "in a threatening manner." Mr. Wilde wrote after they turned right to Battery Driver 1

    continued to follow them and tailgated while he swerved into the eastbound lane. The Wilde party claimed to

    have pulled over to the shoulder of he road to wait for him to pass. Mr. Wilde stated Driver 1 stopped in the

    eastbound lane and stared at them. Mr. Wilde advised he got out

    of

    their vehicle and asked Driver 1 "What do

    you want from us? What is your problem?" He stated a few seconds passed and Driver 1 "gunned the SUV and

    crash. I phoned Mr. and Mrs. Wilde on September 26th, 2014 tore-interview them and they confinned their

    statement. (See the Witness Statements).

    On September

    22nd,

    2014 I learned of another party who encountered Driver I prior to the crash. This party

    consisted of4 Belmont University students who observed Vehicle

    l

    eastbound on Battery Lane west ofFranklin

    Pike. This party was going east on Battery Lane behind Vehicle I The driver for this party was Mr. Spencer

    Lathrop. The passengers for this party were (seating positions 13-23 respectively) Connor Fraley, Karsyn Robb,

    and Meg Ricci. I interviewed each of these occupants individually between September 22nd and September 23rd.

    Each person in this party stated there was a strange odor and noise coming from Vehicle 1. They advised Vehicle

    l

    was in the straight lane

    on

    eastbound Battery at Franklin and Driver

    I s

    window was open. They said Fraley

    advised Driver

    I

    there was a possible problem with Vehicle I All of the occupants advised Driver

    I

    stated he

    was going to kill every [explicative] person in that vehicle. They stated they were away from this scene when

    they observed Vehicle I was following them. They advised they called Emergency Communications and

    attempted to evade Driver 1at high speeds on Franklin Pike going north from Thompson Lane. They stated when

    they reached

    8th

    and Douglas they turned onto Douglas and lost him when they turned ]eft from Acklen to

    Wedgewood. They added they believed Driver 1 was stopped by police. They stated they went to Belmont

    University to await police. Below is the contact information for each member of this party:

    1. Spencer Lathrop 954.591.9208

    2. Karsynn Robb 435.659.8039

    3. MegRicci 614.306.5174

    4. Connor Frayley 513.889.8329

    Sara Moon said she arrived at the scene of the crash at approximately 2300 having driven through smoke.

    She stated she stopped and heard someone calling for help. She stated she called Emergency Communications

    and that her companion Art Preston went to the final rest position to offer aid.

    Her

    contact information is phone

    number 615.414.1031.

    Art Preston stated he went to Vehicle l after Ms. Moon stopped her car and checked on Driver

    1.

    He advised

    he observed Vehicle 1 upside down with no one in the back. He said he called out to Driver I but Driver 1 did

    not respond. Mr. Preston's phone number is 615.663.3071.

    I obtained a search warrant for the Airbag Control Module for Vehicle 1. I served the search warrant with

    Officer Jessie Loy performing data extraction. The analysis and report

    ofthe

    data analysis was completed by

    SGT. Burke. Officer Loy and SGT Burke are members of the MNPD Crash Investigation Unit and are certified

    in data extraction. SGT Burke is credentialed to analysis and report on this data. Our data analysis indicated a

    speed for Vehicle

    l

    of73

    MPH up to

    .5

    seconds prior to algorithm enable. The brake switch was not activated

    and Driver

    1

    s seatbelt was buckled. (See Search Warrant EDR and Onboard Event Data.)

    I also obtained a search warrant for the Apple iPhone device located on the person ofDriver 1, and a court

    order for Verizon records pertaining to his account. With these instruments I would be able to discover if there

    was information which would aid me in determining Driver I s actions during the moments leading up to and

    during the crash event. I executed actions on both and SISU extracted data from the iPhone using the pass code

    which was furnished to me by Driver 1 s spouse. Verizon responded with the information I requested from them.

    In both instances I observed Driver 1 s last call prior to his death was an incoming call at 2056 on September 20,

    2014 from his spouse. The last text message prior to his death was a sent text on Septem her 20, 2014 at 2119.

    I was notified

    ofthe

    existence

    ofCCTV

    footage

    of

    Driver 1 leaving his home on Loring Ct. I attempted to

    review the video footage but the file would not load. I opted instead to view stills

    of

    the footage which showed

    Driver 1 left his property and neighborhood on September 20,2014 between 2239 and 2240 according to the

    timestamp. The footage and was provided by Driver 1 s brother Greg Bironas.

    All

    ofthe

    aforementioned evidence and information led me to conclude on September 20,2014 between 2230

    and 2245 Driver I left his home at I 1 Loring Court. Driver 1 then drove east on Battery Lane between Loring

    Court and Franklin Pike. At that intersection he was met by a group

    of

    people driven by Mr. Spencer Lathrop in a

    car to his left. Both parties turned left to Franklin Pike and according to the other party Driver I chased them on

    northbound Franklin at speeds

    of

    up 110 miles an hour. The members

    ofthis

    party assert Driver 1 followed

    them as far as Acklen Avenue. On southbound Franklin Pike between 2250 and 2303 on September 20,2014 Ms.

    Cynthia Wilde observed Driver 1 following them. According to Ms. Wilde's statement Driver 1 passed them

    going west on Battery Lane. Prior to the crash Driver 1 drove in the curve east

    of

    the crash site at a speed of 73

    miles per hour, traveled west on the north shoulder

    of

    Battery Lane for approximately 236 feet, struck a tree,

    rotated counterclockwise, and came to final rest in the creek bed below. According to statements from MNFD

    EMS Cameron Myers Driver 1 was dead on the scene but they transported him to VUMC because he was treated

    inside the ambulance. The Report

    of

    he Davidson County Medical revealed Driver 1 died from blunt force

    injuries. The toxicology report indicated a blood alcohol level

    of

    .218% and a controlled substance (diazepam)

    level of 9 ng/ml blood. The level ofdiazepam was less than the therapeutic level for the drug as listed on the

    Winek Toxicology Data Table (2001). The cause of the crash was Driver 1 s failure to maintain the proper lane

    and exceeding the posted speed limit. This case

    is

    now closed.

    hours,

    I was notified

    by

    Sgt. Pachciarz that

    he

    needed the fatal

    team to respond to a traffic crash

    on

    Battery Lane because the driver had been killed. While enroute,

    Sgt. Pachciarz

    that the driver, who initially

    had been deemed deceased

    by

    On 9-20-2014 2350, I was called out to a fatal crash on Battery Ln. I arrived and noticed a vehicle flipped on the roof

    in a creek bed. I walked the scene and observed a pattern

    of

    travel along the edge

    of

    he roadway leading to an impact

    point with a

    tree

    I held a

    prism pole at points

    of

    evidence

    as Officer Steel shot

    the

    points mapping

    the scene

    using a

    Topcon Laser Device. I completed a Vehicle Exam and Sgt. Lovell completed a Hold and Tow Form.

    the

    Deployment event

    -If

    a Deployment event and a locked Non-Deployment event are recorded, then the Multiple Event Data is

    associated

    with both events.

    -If a Deployment event and Deployment event

    2

    are

    recorded,

    then the Multiple Event Data is associated with

    both

    events.

    -All data

    should

    be examined in

    conjunction with other available physical evidence

    from

    the vehicle and

    scene

    Data

    Source:

    All

    SDM recorded

    data is measured, calculated, and stored internally, except for the following:

    -Vehicle Status Data (Pre-Crash) is transmitted to the SDM, by various

    vehicle

    control modules,

    via

    the vehicle's

    communication

    network.

    -The

    Belt Switch Circuit

    is wired

    directly to the

    SDM.

    Hexadecimal Data:

    Data

    that

    the vehide manufacturer has specified for data

    retrieva

    I is shown in the hexadecimal data section of the CDR

    report. The

    hexadecimal data

    section

    of the

    CDR report may

    contain

    data

    that

    is

    not translated

    by the CDR

    program.

    The control module contains additional data that is not retrievable by the CDR tool.

    IMPORTANT NOTICE: Robert Bosch LLC and the manufacturers whose vehicles are accessible using the CDR

    System urge end users to use the latest production release of the Crash Data Retrieval system software when

    viewing, printing or exporting any retrieved data from within the CDR program. Using the latest version of the CDR

    software is the best way to ensure that retrieved data has been translated using the most current information provided

    by the manufacturers of the vehicles supported by this product

    DR File Information

    omments

    Vehicle imaging through DLC. Vehicle was backpowered via Officer Carey Steel's marked patrol vehicle. We had to

    use a set of umper cables to clamp onto the red battery wire and onto the vehicle engine. No battery was present in

    vehicle.

    Vehicle imaging was pursuant to a search warffint obtained by Officer Carey Steel from Judge William Higgins.

    Data Limitations

    Recorded Crash Events:

    There are two types of recorded crash events. The first is the Non-Rollover Event. A Non-Deployment Event records

    data but does not deploy the air bag(s). The ROS can store one Non-Rollover Event. This event will be overwritten y

    the next Non-Rollover Event or by a second Rollover Event. A locked Non-Rollover Event cannot be overwritten or

    cleared by the ROS

    The second

    typ

    of ROS recorded crash event is the Rollover Event. The ROS can store up to two different Rollover

    Events. Rollover Events cannot be overwritten or cleared from the ROS Once the

    ROS

    records two Rollover Events,

    the ROS must be replaced.

    Data:

    -The ROS Records lateral Acceleration, Vertical Acceleration, and Roll Rate data. This data reflects what the sensing

    system experienced during the recorded portion of the event. For Rollover Events, the ROS will record 490 milliseconds

    of data before the Deployment criteria is met and 250 milliseconds after Deployment criteria

    is

    met. For Non -Rollover

    Events, the ROS will record 490 milliseconds

    of

    data before event conclusion and 250 milliseconds after event

    conclusion. Acceleration and Roll Rate data are displayed in SAE sign convention.

    -Event Recording Complete will indicate if data from the recorded event has been fully written to the ROS memory or if it

    has been interrupted and not fully written.

    -ROS Recorded Vehicle Speed accuracy can be affected by various factors, including but not limited to the following:

    -Significant changes in the tire's rolling radius

    -Final drive axle ratio changes

    -Wheel lockup and wheel slip

    -Pre-Crash Electronic Data Validity Check Status indicates Data Invalid if:

    -The ROS receives a message with an invalid flag from the module sending the pre-crash data

    -No data is received from the module sending the pre-crash data

    -No module present to send the pre-crash data

    -If power to the ROS is lost during a crash event, all or part of the crash record may not be recorded.

    -Ignition Cycles Since DTCs Were

    last

    Cleared can record a maximum value of 255 cycles and can only be reset by a

    scan tool.

    -Event Recorded last in the Ignition Cycle is used to determine event order if more than one event is recorded in the

    same ignition

    -Rollover Occupant Containment Enable Status

    Enabled: Indicates that the ROS system enabled after the ROS internal system check

    Disabled: Indicates that the ROS system disabled after the ROS internal system check

    -Rollover Occupant Containment Enable Override Status

    Normal: Indicates that the ROS system enabled after receipt of expected messages from the SDM

    Override: Indicates that the ROS system enabled without receipt of expected messages from the SDM (This

    does not inhibit ROS performance)
