Breaking news Posted 1:06 p.m., Wednesday, Jan. 7, 2009

Riverside resident Douglas Moore has pleaded not guilty to manslaughter in the death of bicyclist Joseph Borselio last year.

Mr. Moore, 24, entered his plea during a short court appearance Wednesday morning. He will now face a Feb. 11 pre-trial hearing. Police said Mr. Moore was driving while intoxicated when he struck Mr. Borselio, 20, who was riding his bicycle on Sheephill Road near Sound Beach Avenue Extension about 11:45 p.m. on Oct. 5. Police say toxicology reports showed Mr. Moore’s blood alcohol content far above the legal limit and he attempted to leave the scene of the accident after his car hit Mr. Borselio, but he crashed into a utility pole a short distance away, where officers found him at the scene.

Mr. Moore has been charged with second degree manslaughter with a motor vehicle, driving under the influence, evading responsibility in a fatal crash, unsafe movement and failure to exercise due care to avoid a pedestrian.

While Mr. Moore was represented on Wednesday, and during his prior court appearance last November, by attorney James Pastore, Mr. Moore’s defense will be handled by Philip Russell, who recently returned to his Greenwich practice. Mr. Pastore had worked in Mr. Russell’s practice and will soon be leaving the firm. Mr. Russell indicated he would be representing Mr. Moore at the Feb. 11 hearing......

...Mr. Moore did not give a statement to

police regarding the events...

......Mr. Russell declined comment when asked by the Post if his client had indeed attempted to flee the scene.

At first, Stamford Superior Court Judge Barbara Brazzel-Massaro expressed concern that a Feb. 11 hearing was too far away to wait, but the prosecution and defense agreed on the date. Attorney Lindy Urso, who is representing the Borselio family’s interests during the criminal proceeding, is also expected to be in court. Originally Mr. Pastore, who was representing Mr. Moore at the proceeding, told the judge that Mr. Urso would be out of town until that date. However, Mr. Urso later indicated to the Post that this was not the case.

Mr. Urso said the family wanted to make sure its interests are represented so that Mr. Moore receives a “just punishment.”

“The family wants to make sure a punishment is set to serve as a deterrent in the future so other families don’t have to experience what they’ve gone through,” Mr. Urso said Wednesday.....

COMMENT:

Mr. Moore Did Not Give A Statement To The Greenwich Police Department, Because Police Officers Violated Department Policy And Let His Drunk Ass Go Without Being Charged.

Douglas Moore, the Riverside man charged with second-degree manslaughter with a motor vehicle in the death of 20-year-old Joseph Borselio, today entered a not guilty plea in state Superior Court in Stamford

Attorney Philip Russell, who is representing Moore, said the plea does not necessarily mean Moore is seeking a trial.

"Procedurally, this is a necessary step in order to advance the case to the next level," said Russell. "It doesn't by any means indicate that we are seeking a trial or anything other than an amicable sensible resolution."


Moore is also charged with operating under the influence, evading responsibility in a fatal crash, unsafe movement and failure to exercise due care to a pedestrian.

Moore turned himself into Greenwich police on Nov. 17 on a warrant stemming from an investigation of the accident which occurred on Oct. 5

just before midnight on Sheephill Road near the Sound Beach Avenue Extension.


Police said Moore tried to leave the scene after striking Borselio, who was riding his bicycle north on Sheephill Road, the same direction Moore was traveling.


Moore's next court appearance is scheduled for Feb. 11.
