Ex-astronaut charged with murder in Alabama wreck
Retired Air Force colonel and five shuttle veteran James Hassell Jr. is charged with murder after an early morning crash on a rural Alabama highway killed two 11 and 13 year old girls. Authorities say alcohol and speed may have been factors. Hassell, released on bail, had led NASA’s return-to-flight team after the 2003 Columbia disaster and logged more than 1,250 hours in space across five shuttle missions.
