Venus Williams
Venus Williams unwittingly caused the death of a 79-year old man, Jerome Barson, when she had entered an intersection but was suddenly cut off by another vehicle. This then made her swerve and hit the Barson’s car, causing internal injuries and fractures to Mr. Barson’s spine. He died almost 2 weeks later, but Williams was not charged in his death. She eventually released a statement saying, “My heartfelt condolences go out to the family and friends of Jerome Barson and I continue to keep them in my thoughts and prayers.”
