Officer Jason Anderson Fired After Being Charged with Manslaughter

Police commissioners in Milford Monday night fired a town police officer charged with manslaughter in a crash that killed two teenagers in June.

Commissioners agreed with Police Chief Keith Mello's recommendation to fire Officer Jason Anderson, of Milford.

The accident in Orange killed two 19-year-olds, David Servin and Ashlie Krakowski, both of Orange.

Police say Anderson was driving 94 miles an hour while returning from a mutual aid call in West Haven and didn't have his emergency lights or siren on when the teens' car turned in front of him on Route 1. Anderson and his lawyer have declined to comment on the allegations.

Commissioners on Monday also suspended Officer Richard Pisani for 30 days without pay. Pisani was driving alongside Anderson that night.
