There has been no further updates in the news since 2020. It is now January 1st, 2023, Did Quentin Campbell get off of his charges -causing the death of two people by illegally making a U turn on the thruway in front of the their vehicle, then after he knew the outcome of his actions, fled the scene, briefly getting off the thruway to pull the wreckage of their car off his trailer, then quickly returned to Pennsylvania.

It appears the laws in New York State are much too lax if Quentin Campbell got off of his charges or was able to plea deal his charges down to nothing. A trial date was proposed for April 2021, but no there was no further reports which would appear it never went to trial. A lot of people want to know what happened.

I am the biological sibling of Jerry Drake Jr and Krista Strickland is our step sister. I would love to know a way to get the documents on the full detailed scheduled courts and etc. Them getting killed in New York made it hard for our family to travel being we live in Tennessee. I feel I did not get the answers I needed and yes it has been 3 years and more years to come. The days do not get easier and not knowing for sure if the person responsible got what he deserved definitely doesn't help the grief. My brother and sisters keeper I will forever be, their soul will continue to be carried own by the ones who loved them. They had friends all across the United States and it fills my heart hearing others tell their stories on how the got to know them or how much they feel the pain we carry each day. Thank you once again for still continuing to speak upon their tremendous souls.
