morbidology:On October 26, 2001, a tragic incident in Fort Worth, Texas, led to the death of 37-year-old Gregory Glenn Biggs. Biggs was a homeless man battling mental health issues but was striving to improve his life. That night, he was struck by 25-year-old nursing assistant Chante Jawan Mallard while she was allegedly intoxicated.Mallard’s Chevrolet Cavalier hit Biggs with such force that his body became lodged in the windshield. Instead of stopping and offering and offering assistance, Mallard instead drove home with Biggs still trapped in her car. She parked in her garage and left him there without seeking any medical help.Over the next two to three days, Biggs remained stuck in the windshield while Mallard occasionally checked on him. Sadly, Biggs died from his injuries, injuries experts later testified he could have survived if given medical attention.Instead of calling for help, Mallard contacted her friend Clete Jackson, and with the assistance of Jackson’s cousin, Herbert Tyrone Cleveland, they disposed of Biggs’s body in a park. The trio was later convicted of tampering with evidence after attempting to cover up the crime, even setting fire to parts of the vehicle.Mallard’s crime went undiscovered for months until she was overheard laughing about the incident at a party, which led to her arrest and subsequent trial. During the trial, medical experts testified that Biggs could have survived had Mallard sought medical attention.On June 23, 2003, Mallard was convicted of murder and sentenced to 50 years in prison. She also received a concurrent 10-year sentence for tampering with evidence and will be eligible for parole in 2027.The case had lasting repercussions, especially for Biggs’s family. His son, Brandon, later forgave Mallard and even received a scholarship from inmates across the country in honor of his father.
