Hit-and-Run Suspect's Wild Confession

0:00New details just dropped on that deadly hit-and-run in Overland Park that took the life of a 68-year-old woman named Janet Dam back on. October 28, 2025. Brigham P. Morgan, a guy from Baldwin, Missouri, faces charges of involuntary manslaughter and ditching the scene. Court records unsealed this week, penn a wild picture of what went down around 3.30 a.m. near Goddard and Switzerland. Investigators pieced it together from crash data, ring footage, and a tip. Morgan was ripping through a 25-mile-per-hour zone at about 80. Miles per hour in his white Acura, he slammed into a park car, kept going, struck Dam as she walked on the roadside. He bailed on foot, but got nabbed later at a hospital treating his injuries. Dam was a local who walked that route every day around 4 a.m., so this hit closed to home for folks in the neighborhood. The crash shook up residents already on edge about early morning traffic there, turning a routine walk into tragedy.

1:03The fresh affidavit spills on Morgan's bizarre talk to cops. He claimed he swerved to miss an old lady, thought he did, then a voice told him to run. He admitted to a drink that left him feeling euphoric, and a drug expert noted his day's look, hallucinations, tremors, and possible LSD history. Doctors said his crash wounds didn't explain it. Blood test results are still out, but Morgan's got a preliminary hearing set for April 3rd in Johnson County Court. This case keeps unfolding, shining light on road dangers we can't ignore.
