Judge: 'No compassion' for Cedar Lake woman who killed father of four in crash

CROWN POINT — A Lake Criminal Court judge sentenced a woman Friday to a maximum sentence of one year in jail for causing a crash that killed a father of four and severely injured the man's passenger and the defendant.
Megan A. Zyla, 25, of Cedar Lake, pleaded guilty in May to reckless driving, a class A misdemeanor, in connection with a head-on crash May 21, 2019, on U.S. 41, just south of St. John.
Nick DeVries, 32, of Lowell, was killed and his co-worker Jordan Muscari was severely injured in the crash. Zyla also suffered severe injuries.
Defense attorney Thomas Mullins said there was no "admissible evidence" in the case to suggest Zyla used alcohol or drugs in the hours leading up to the crash.
