On May 12, 2022, 21-year-old Justin Maurice was driving a Hyundai north on Hespeler Road when it collided with the side of a southbound Toyota. The Toyota rolled over, killing 51-year-old Randy Turenne of Cambridge in the crash.
A co-worker of Maurice’s, 30-year-old Alexander Brown from Pickering, was a passenger in the Hyundai. He was also killed.

He pleaded guilty to the charges.
On Friday morning, Maurice was sentenced to seven years in jail and handed a driving prohibition for 10 years, minus the time he has already spent off the roads.
