The Chevy, with a single male driver, sailed through red lights as it traveled up 66th Street and then U.S. 19 toward Palm Harbor where it slammed into a Mustang at Tampa Road. ‘That night was a game-changer,’ said Gualtieri, now Pinellas County sheriff. ‘It still resonates today.’ Nearly 30 years have passed since Lawrence Brown’s daughters were killed in that fiery wreck as his wife paced and prayed, unaware the family’s world had already been upended less than a mile from their front door.”
