Family Reaches $13M Settlement with Seattle over Deadly Crash
The family of a couple killed in 2013 by a drunk driver has settled with the city of Seattle for $13 million.
The family of Dennis and Judy Schulte settled with the city. Prosecutors say Mark Mullan was drunk when his pickup hit the Schulte family as they were crossing a road. Dennis and Judy Schulte were killed in the crash, and their daughter-in-law and her newborn baby were severely injured.
Court records show Mullan was arrested five times for DUI before the deadly crash. At the time, he was on probation for a DUI conviction and should not have been driving without an interlock device on his truck.
