I represent the family of Billy Faucett in a Missouri wrongful death case. Billy was killed on December 19, 2015 in Campbell Missouri when a drunk driver crossed the center line of highway 53 and crashed head on into the car Billy was a passenger in. The driver and Billy were killed instantly. Everyone died except for the drunk driver, Cory Ray Thompson.
Cory Ray Thompson currently is wanted and has 2 felony 1st Degree Manslaughter charges pending against him for the deaths he caused. This is the 4th time he has been caught drunk driving. This is not Cory Thompson’s first drunk driving related offense. He was charged with drunk driving on January 28, 2015, March 20, 2015, and September 27, 2015. Just 2 days before he killed Bill Faucett and the driver he plead guilty to DWI and got probation in Butler County Missouri.
