Attorneys representing the estate of hit-and-run victim Jean Darsky say they identified the driver who fatally struck the woman on Mother's Day.
They want his assets frozen. They want to inspect and photograph his truck. They want him subjected to a series of questions for a civil lawsuit they promise is coming.
Ms. Darsky, 65, was killed in front of her home at 302 Westminster Road in Jenkins Twp. the afternoon of May 12 while trying to remove a political flier attached to her mailbox.
The fleeing driver was a man who lived a short distance down the road: John Kuniskas, 36, of 1072 Westminster Road, according to emergency court motions filed Tuesday by Darsky family attorneys. A hearing has been set for the motions for July 8.
"This is not a whodunit," said Kingston-based attorney Edward Ciarimboli, who filed the motions with attorney Kevin Boylan. "This is a why-it-happened."
