As you all know, I love writing news about celebrities and car accidents. This may be because I am a personal injury lawyer in Los Angeles, or just becuase I like reading about the big guy getting knocked down. Anyways, here is another one you wont see on the regular news.

According to reports the Swedish hip-hop artist David Moses Jassy who has been accused of alleged road rage in the death of John Osnes a jazz pianist pleaded not guilty.

These charges stem from an incident that occurred in November when Osnes age 55 was walking across an intersection according to police, when Jassy driving an SUV drove into the crosswalk. Police then stated that Osnes struck the front of the vehicle; this is when police allege Jassy exited the vehicle, punched and kicked Osnes. Then police stated that Jassy returned to the vehicle and drove over Osnes.

Jassy age 34 is currently in custody on $1 million bail and being represented by attorney Donald Etra. Etra made a statement after the Superior Court arraignment where Jassy plead not guilty that they will aggressively defend the charges and Jassy understands the seriousness of the charges against him.
