Jury verdict for the plaintiff

A jury verdict of $152 thousand dollars for the plaintiff ended a two-day trial in the Oconee Common Pleas Court.  The money award goes to Oconee resident Roger Whitfield to compensate for the injuries in a 2013 accident at a Myrtle Beach intersection involving his car and a pickup truck driven by Virginia resident Logan Shores.  Testifying in his defense, Shores admitted fault and said, at the scene, he apologized.  The trial lasted two days.
