State v. Jeffrey Bettencourt.

Summary

The Supreme Court of Rhode Island affirmed Jeffrey Bettencourt’s convictions for driving to endanger resulting in death and denied his motions for a new trial and sentence review. The Court held that the trial judge properly admitted the photograph, medical examiner testimony, lay and expert speed opinions, and correctly limited cross‑examination, and that procedural errors were waived or harmless. The case was remanded to the Superior Court for further proceedings.
