Maryland Man Pleads Guilty to Involuntary Manslaughter in Fatal BW Parkway Crash
A Maryland man pleaded guilty in federal court on August 31, 2026, to involuntary manslaughter in connection with a fatal car crash on the Baltimore-Washington (BW) Parkway, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Maryland.
Vincent Antwonn Still, 59, of Hanover, entered the plea stemming from the August 5, 2023, crash that killed a 48-year-old father of five. According to the plea, Still was driving northbound on the BW Parkway when he lost control of his car, struck one vehicle from behind, then crossed into the southbound lanes and struck the victim's vehicle head-on. Prior to the crash, Still was driving at a high rate of speed and weaving through traffic.
Following the crash, first responders transported Still to the University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center, where treating physicians noted a strong odor of alcohol. Approximately one hour after the accident, Still's blood-alcohol level registered at .259, making him under the influence of alcohol at the time of the crash. The United States Park Police examined the car's event data recorder, which recorded that Still traveled 102 mph in a 55-mph zone shortly before the crash, with no use of the vehicle's brakes.
Still faces a maximum sentence of eight years in prison for involuntary manslaughter. Actual sentences for federal crimes are typically less than the maximum penalties. A federal district court judge will determine sentencing after considering the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other statutory factors.

How we work
This site models an investigative reporter rather than a wire desk. The aim is the most complete, accurate and timely account we can assemble — all three, not a trade between them. Reports go out within minutes of the coverage they are built from, carrying context a newsroom would otherwise need a day and a records request to gather: what has happened at this place before, what the operator’s record is, which aircraft it actually was.
Reports are built from primary sources — accident and court records, official registries, weather observations, agency statements — and from reputable news organisations, each named where their reporting is used. Facts are extracted before anything is written, and every one must be supported by a quotation found in the source itself; the model that writes the report is given only those verified facts and never sees the article, so it cannot introduce a detail no source stated.
Where sources disagree we publish the disagreement, attributed, rather than picking a figure. Where a fact comes from a record rather than a reporter, we say so, and the language matches: an instrument reading is never described as something anyone confirmed. Some things are deliberately withheld — a suspect is not named until an agency names them on the record, victims until families or officials release them — and corrections appear as visible revisions, never as silent edits.
None of that makes a report true. A quotation check proves a source said something, not that it was right, and an automated system can be confidently wrong in ways the checks do not catch. If something here is wrong, the feedback above is how it gets found. The full methodology, including what we refuse to publish.
