A Henrico man has been sentenced to prison for his involvement in a tragic crash that claimed the lives of three James Madison University students two years ago.
Campbell Fortune, 21, was sentenced to 90 days in prison, along with seven years of supervised probation. Initially, he could have faced up to a year behind bars.
Fortune was sentenced after he pleaded no contest to two misdemeanors: speeding and negligent homicide. At the time of the incident in 2023, he was acting as the designated driver when the deadly crash occurred.
The crash resulted in the tragic deaths of 19-year-olds John "Luke" Fergusson and Nicholas Troutman, and 20-year-old Joshua Mardis. The car they were in crashed into a tree at 95 mph in West Virginia. Sources indicate that the group was returning from a gentleman's club at the time of the crash.
