She described her husband whose occupation was a system engineer, as brilliant, lively, caring and a great father to their daughter.However, he never got a chance to reach retirement because Sedighi said he was taken from her in the crash. “One thing that I see when I get here is I panic thinking about the same thing is going to happen, is someone going to run a red light and hit me,” Sedighi said.
She also said after looking at Barry’s toxicology report and seeing tetrahydrocannabinol, which is found in marijuana, she wants to warn other drivers to think twice about what they put in their body when getting behind the wheel.
