Pedestrian Safety: Hit-and-Run Roadside Walker's Killer Still at Large in Iowa or Wisconsin or Minnesota

By Steve Lombardi

I wonder if your conscience is bothering you. Do you have trouble sleeping at night? Do you continue to have a memory of the sound when your car or truck struck the man walking on the roadside in Iowa? Does that sound come back and haunt you? Aren't you eating as well? What no appetite? Yeah a guilty conscience can do that to you. Maybe you should do the right thing and turn yourself in. Maybe then you can sleep better, or maybe not.

Do you need help turning yourself in? See a local lawyer, I'm sure they can arrange it peacefully. Then you can get on with consequences and moving on with your life.

Jeffrey Drahn was walking on Highway 52 on March 15, 2009 when he was struck by an unidentified vehicle. He was found the following morning by an unidentified school bus driver.

There still doesn't appear to be any arrest in this incident. The vehicle that struck Drahn still hasn't been located or the driver found.
