David Marsh settled a case for the widow and children of a sanitation worker who died while on the job in Cullman County. The 35-year-old was working as a “thrower” on the rear of a huge white garbage truck operating along Highway 231 just south of Arab, Alabama, when the garbage truck was struck from behind. The driver of a contractor’s truck barreled into the rear of the garbage truck at 55 mph in the middle of broad daylight.

The wreck was captured on video surveillance tape at a nearby gas station located by one of our investigators.
