Jury Rejects Man's Injury Claims in Rear-End Crash
Frederick County jurors rejected injury claims by Thomas C. Heselton after a low-speed rear-end collision on a highway. Heselton, 51, said he slowed and was struck by a vehicle owned by Bob's Custom Cabinets & Countertops and driven by Luciano Pusterla. He reported shoulder discomfort two months later, while his attorney argued a pinched nerve. The defense asserted the damage and alleged age-related conditions. Judge Julie Stevenson presided over a two-day trial with six witnesses.
