Another court date for Muzzo in alleged drunk driving crash

By

TORONTO (NEWS 1130) – Marco Muzzo, accused in an alleged drunk driving crash that killed three children and their grandfather, is scheduled to appear in a Newmarket court on Wednesday.

His case has been put over at least five times, prompting speculation that his lawyers are working on a plea to avoid a trial.

Muzzo is facing 18 charges in the Sept. 27 collision. Police believe Muzzo’s black Range Rover T-boned a minivan carrying the children, their grandfather, and two other adult women.

Three siblings, Daniel Neville-Lake, 9, his brother Harrison, 5, their sister Milly, 2, all died at the scene. Their 65-year-old grandfather died later in hospital. The children’s grandmother and great-grandmother were also seriously injured.

Muzzo, 29, has been in custody since the crash.

Jennifer Neville-Lake, the mother of the three children, said a plea deal would at least signal movement in the case.

“If he puts in a plea then he puts in a plea,” she said last month. “We would be at least able to move, not forward, but we wouldn’t be stagnant.”
