A young driver who killed a passenger in his car the day after he passed his driving test said “what have I done, I’ve killed my best friend” immediately after the crash, a court has heard.
Corey Owen Cooper was jailed for five years on Friday for causing the death of Josh Atkins by dangerous driving and also seriously injuring another friend, Gabe Wiggett, by a judge who said he was “driving a car deplorably, almost certainly trying to show off to friends”.
