Pleas for Justice From a Heartbroken Family

The family of 24-year-old Liam Crowley were in court Tuesday as a man with at least five DUI convictions on his record was charged with homicide in Crowley's death.

Liam Crowley was riding his motorcycle on Wilmington Pike/Route 202 when he was struck by a truck that police say turned into him and struck the motorcye. Crowley was airlifted to Paoli Hospital where he died two days later on April 28.

Bail for defendant Robert Elwood Landis, 49, of West Chester was set at $1 million cash.

After the arraignment Liam Crowley's visibly shaken mother, Diane Crowley told reporters “Liam James Crowley was extraordinary. Liam was special, he lived his life with passion, he loved generously, he was and he is loved immeasurably.”

Diane Crowley also said that she, her husband and Liam's father Patrick Crowley, her daughter and Liam Crowley's girlfriend would now have to be his voice and would work to prevent other situations like this from occuring in the future.
