Ex-bishop apologises to hit-and-run family
The former Bishop of Phoenix, Arizona, in the US, has apologised in court to the family of the pedestrian he killed in a hit-and-run accident last year, saying: “I know there is no one to blame for this but me.”
Thomas O’Brien, 68, spoke during a pre-sentencing hearing in Phoenix yesterday. He could get anything from probation to three years and nine months in prison when he is sentenced next Friday over the death last June of Jim Reed.
