Judge Gary White granted former WWE Chairman and CEO Vince
McMahon a pre-trial probationary program in his reckless
driving case during a hearing this morning at the state
Superior Court in Stamford, Connecticut according to
Greenwich Time.
The supervised program, which enables offenders to complete
certain conditions, like counseling, community service etc,
is to avoid consequences of a criminal conviction. In this
case, McMahon was ordered to make a $1,000 charitable
contribution and only drive if properly licensed and
insured. Charges of reckless driving and following too
closely will be dismissed in October 2026 if McMahon doesn’t
repeat what happened.
The drivers involved in the July 24 crash on Merritt Parkway
were not even present at the hearing and there were no
objections. Deputy Assistant State’s Attorney Eileen
Ornousky did not object either as McMahon was fully covered
by insurance.
No one was injured when McMahon was driving his 2024 Bentley
Continental in excess of 90 miles per hour and hit a few
other vehicles in the process, totaling his car.
McMahon’s lawyer, Mark Sherman, told the court that he sent
apology notes on behalf of McMahon to the other drivers.
Vince did not speak in court or to reporters but did sign
autographs and posed for photos with fans on the way in and
out of court.
