Morphine found in driver’s truck, cop testifies
A 63-year-old Colorado Springs woman was under the influence of morphine and barbiturates when she plowed into and killed two bicyclists in August, according to court testimony Thursday.
Barbara Thomas will stand trial on two charges of vehicular homicide and driving under the influence of drugs, 4th Judicial District Judge Gilbert Martinez decided Thursday after hearing the evidence against her.
Thomas was driving a Ford F-350 on 26th Street on Aug. 6 when she turned left onto Westend Avenue, ramming bicyclists Edgar “E.J.” Juarez, 30, and Jayson Kilroy, 28. The men died of massive internal injuries, according to the El Paso County coroner.
