Porsche Driver Charged For Killing Cyclist on Aurora
From the PI.com:
John Dempsey Morris, 27, could face 15 to 20 months in prison for killing John Leoni near Aurora Avenue North. The sentencing guidelines are set by the Legislature.
The night of July 1, 2009, Leoni left his job in Shoreline at Banchero Friends Services, a program that supports people with developmental disabilities. He was near the lower Queen Anne residence he shared with his girlfriend when the collision occurred about 10:15 p.m.

Morris' black Porsche caused catastrophic injuries, authorities said, and Leoni died at the scene. He was 35.
Police said a reconstruction of the collision determined the speed of Morris' vehicle was between 60 and 65 mph. It's unknown if Leoni stopped at the curb ramp before attempting to cross Dexter Way North, but he was struck as he entered the unmarked crosswalk, investigators said.
