Prosecutors rested Tuesday in the trial of a man accused of killing a pregnant woman in a crash while fleeing police. Erin Mogensen, 32, died when a vehicle struck the side of her car at the corner of 100th Street and Capitol Drive in Wauwatosa in November 2023. Police arrested Frank Mosley, 20. A crash expert testified Tuesday, saying the vehicle was traveling nearly 70 mph at the time of impact. “One second before impact, the BMW is traveling 78 mph, no gas pedal and the brake is on,” said Milwaukee police Officer Richard Schnier, who is part of the accident reconstruction unit. “The driver brakes with such force that now the anti-lock braking system kicks in.” Surveillance video showed a person running from the scene of the accident. A witness on the stand Tuesday described what he saw the person do after the crash. “No, he did not stop. “When he jumped out of the vehicle and started running, he began to stumble, but instead of falling to the ground, he got back on his feet and kept running,” said Maurice Henderson. If convicted, Mosley faces more than 100 years in prison.

The trial against a man who is said to have killed a pregnant woman in a car accident while fleeing from the police was discontinued on Tuesday.

“No, he did not stop. As he jumped out of the vehicle and started running, he started to stumble, but instead of falling to the ground, he got back on his feet and kept running,” said Maurice Henderson.
