Reckless homicide suspect arraigned in Christian Circuit Court

Robert Jackson, the man charged with two counts of reckless homicide in connection with a fatal collision on Princeton Road in 2019, was arraigned in Christian Circuit Court Wednesday.

Jackon is being represented by defense attorney Allison Mohon, who entered a not guilty plea on his behalf and says that she does intend to enter a bond motion on his behalf soon.

Judge Andrew Self agreed to sign an order that would allow Jackson to receive the medication he needs while lodged in the Christian County Jail and he set a pretrial hearing for October 27.

As previously reported, Jackson was traveling south on Princeton Road about three and a half miles north of the Bypass in Christian County on December 23, 2019 when he crossed the center line and collided head-on with a vehicle driven by 32-year-old Misty Quarles of Cerulean. Quarles’ pickup then went over a bridge and onto a creek bed.

Quarles and a passenger, 11-year-old Alexia Trump, died from their injuries.

Two other passengers, 34-year-old Marcus Quarles and a juvenile, were seriously injured and flown to Vanderbilt University Medical Center and Jackson was also injured in the collision.
