Single Mom of 3 Killed in NJ Transit Train Accident: A Family Seeks Justice
On October 14, tragedy struck when Jessica Haley, a 41-year-old single mother of three, was killed in a devastating train accident in Burlington County, New Jersey. While operating a New Jersey Transit (NJ Transit) River Line train, her vehicle collided with a tree that had fallen onto the tracks. The crash left Haley dead and 23 passengers injured, though most sustained only minor injuries.

Train operators had allegedly reported issues with downed trees in the area, even suggesting that track cars be sent ahead to check for debris before passenger trains passed through.
