Mark Cohen, 54, died on December 11, 2021, when Mary Angela Bell swerved across the centerline and struck his minivan head-on in Gwinnett County, Georgia. Bell admitted liability, so the April 2024 trial in the State Court of Georgia addressed damages only. The jury awarded $28 million, made up of $26.5 million for the full value of Mr. Cohen's life and $1.5 million for his pre-impact fright, shock and terror.
