A mum who was robbed of her ‘best friend and future’ by a dangerous driver after her husband was killed in a horror crash is finally hoping to get justice. Angie Phelan was unable to see hubby Mike, 48, one last time due to the severe injuries he sustained during the collision, which left two others dead.
The 46-year-old’s partner had been working away in Kent when he got into a car driven by Carl Simpson, 36, on April 18, 2021, alongside another passenger named Jack. The BMW M135i later collided with a black Dacia Duster Ambiance, driven by a much-loved grandmother Sharon Haywood, who also tragically died.
Angie told HullLive: "I just wish Mike hadn't put his life in Carl's hands that day. Mike, Jack and Sharon all died at the scene, and Carl was the only one able to get himself out. When police knocked at my door, they told me the car had caught fire when Mike was still inside.
