Parks Township woman sentenced for aggravated assault by vehicle in April crash
A woman who state police said was impaired during a Salem crash that left a motorcyclist seriously injured was sentenced Monday to one to two years in a state prison.
Jammie Lynn Koslof, 44, of Parks Township, Armstrong County, was ordered to spend three years on probation after the prison term. She must pay $12,420 to the crash victim or the victim’s insurance company, according to court order.
Koslof pleaded guilty to aggravated assault by vehicle while driving under the influence, reckless driving and two counts of driving under the influence. The other charges were dismissed.
State police said Holly Marcheck of Latrobe was waiting at a red light on Route 22 west at 9 a.m. April 16 on her BMW motorcycle when Koslof, driving a Hyundai Tucson, rear-ended the bike. Marcheck was taken by medical helicopter to a hospital for treatment of what troopers described in court papers as serious injuries.
A blood test showed that Koslof had cocaine, prescription medication and THC, the psychoactive component of marijuana, in her blood, according to court papers.
She was credited with time served since her arrest June 6.
