A Bolingbrook man whose street racing caused a crash that killed two people was sentenced Tuesday to six months in jail.
DuPage County prosecutors had asked for a 12-year prison sentence for Jordan Gant for the Sept. 25, 2018, crash on Stearns Road in Bartlett.
"I'm truly sorry for my involvement in this situation," said Gant, calling it a mistake. He said he prays for the families of the victims every day.
The judge took into account that Gant had no previous criminal history.
Gant's mother and the senior pastor of the church they attend testified that Gant is someone who cares about other people and volunteers at the church and charitable organizations.
