The family of the Georgia high schooler who fatally ran over his teacher in a prank gone wrong called it a “devastating” freak accident, but not a “crime,” after his charges were dropped. Jayden Wallace — an 18-year-old student at North Hall County High slapped with first-degree vehicular homicide for the March 6 death of math teacher Jason Hughes — thanked the educator’s widow for her compassion in pushing for the dismissal of a slew of charges against him and his four friends. “Jayden Wallace and his family first want to thank Laura Hughes for her remarkable compassion and spirit of forgiveness in the face of tremendous loss of her husband, Jason Hughes,” Wallace’s family attorney, Graham McKinnon, said in a statement Friday to ABC News.
