An Alabama jury awarded a widow $3.5 million after her husband suffered wrongful death in a trucking accident.

In 2008, James Sanderson was rear-ended by a logging truck, which caused his car to hit the back of another logging truck. The impact caused the front logging truck to lose his cargo, which broke through Sanderson’s windshield, killing him almost instantly, according to an article in Lawyers USA.
