Repercussions
Following his recovery, Broderick was charged with reckless driving and faced five years in prison. But the actor got off lightly when authorities relented, fining him $175 and a bail of $4,075. Broderick and Grey quickly returned to the States. The family of the two Irish women called the sentence a “travesty of justice” and reported being frustrated that the world was interested only in the actors and not their loved ones who died in the crash.
