Odessa, Texas Semi-Truck Fatal Crash on FM 866 — What the Family Needs to Know Right Now You are reading this because someone you love was killed on FM 866. Maybe it was your mother. Maybe your grandmother. You saw the news headline, and the first thing that hit you — before the grief even settled — was the phrase “failed to yield.” That phrase is the Texas Department of Public Safety’s preliminary finding, released to the press within hours of the crash, before the truck’s black box was downloaded, before the dashcam footage was reviewed, before a single accident reconstructionist measured a skid mark. And that phrase is the reason the trucking company’s insurance adjuster is already building their defense around your mother’s supposed fault — while the evidence that could tell the real story is disappearing, hour by hour, from the truck that hit her. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm, PLLC. We handle commercial truck crash and wrongful death cases across Texas, and we are writing this page for one person: the family member who just lost someone to a semi-truck on a Permian Basin farm-to-market road and does not yet know what rights they…

Odessa, Ector County Rollover Crash: A 16-Year-Old Dead, Another Fighting for His Life in Lubbock If you are reading this at 2 a.m. from a kitchen table in Odessa — or from a waiting room at UMC in Lubbock, 150 miles from home — you already know the worst part. What you may not know is that the first report from the scene is almost never the whole story. Texas DPS wrote down what it could see in the hours after the truck rolled: a Chevrolet Silverado on West Murphy Street, two sixteen-year-old boys, no seatbelts, one ejected and gone, one taken by ambulance or helicopter to a trauma center far enough away that the drive itself tells you how bad the injuries are. That report is the beginning of the investigation, not the end of it. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm. We handle wrongful-death cases and catastrophic car and truck crash cases in Texas. This page is written for one person: the parent, the sibling, the guardian who is sitting with a folder of hospital paperwork and a phone full of missed calls from an insurance adjuster who sounds friendly and is not. Everything here is…

When a Toddler Is Flown 90 Miles From an Odessa Crash, the Injury Speaks Before Any Doctor Does If you are reading this, you already know the sound a helicopter makes when it lifts off from an Odessa hospital with a two-year-old inside it. You know the drive to Lubbock is long. You know the waiting room chairs are hard. And you may have already gotten a phone call from someone who sounds friendly and is not — an insurance adjuster who wants to “just check on how everyone’s doing” while building a recording designed to shrink what your family is owed. We are Attorney911 — The Manginello Law Firm. We are trial lawyers who take Texas car crash cases, and this page is written for the person sitting in that Lubbock waiting room or at a kitchen table in Odessa at two in the morning, trying to understand what happens next.

Wrong-Way DWI on Highway 191: What Happened to Two DPS Troopers and a Child — and What the Law Lets Victims Recover If you are reading this because someone you love was on State Highway 191 in the early hours of a Saturday morning — a trooper who went to work that shift and came home with injuries that changed everything, or a family member trying to understand how a 9-year-old child ended up running through the dark toward strangers in uniform because she was terrified of her own father — you are in the hardest part of this right now.

When a Child Dies Days After an Odessa Car Crash — What Your Family Needs to Know If you are reading this because your own child was taken from you in a crash on Andrews Highway or anywhere in the Permian Basin, we want you to hear something first: your child’s death is not a news brief. It is not a statistic. It is the most devastating thing that can happen to a family, and the law recognizes it as exactly that. What happened on that Friday morning at the intersection of 100th Street and Andrews Highway in Odessa is a parent’s worst nightmare — a toddler was seriously injured in a collision and, despite surviving for days afterward, ultimately passed away. We are writing this page not because we represent this particular family — we do not — but because the questions that follow a child’s death on a Texas road are the same questions every grieving family in Odessa, Midland, Ector County, and across the Permian Basin will face. And the answers can change everything. Here is the first thing you need to know: the days your child lived after the collision matter. They matter because Texas law…

If Your Loved One Was the Passenger in the Odessa Red-Light Crash on Andrews Highway, Here Is What You Need to Know Right Now You are sitting in a hospital waiting room at Medical Center Hospital, or you got the call at midnight and drove the dark stretch of Highway 191 into Odessa not knowing if your person would still be alive when you arrived. The monitors are beeping. Someone in scrubs used words like “life-threatening” and “critical” and “next 24 hours.” The police are still at the intersection of 42nd Street and Andrews Highway, where the white Mazda minivan and the blue Ford Mustang collided at over 11 o’clock at night, and the driver who caused it did not survive. Your loved one was in that passenger seat. They had no wheel, no brake, no say in what happened. And right now the single most important thing in their life is whether the people trying to save them win the next few hours — but the second most important thing is whether the evidence of what happened on that road survives the next few days. Because it is already disappearing. Every minute that passes, something else is being overwritten,…

Odessa Hit-and-Run Motorcycle Crash on Andrews Highway: What Happened and What You Can Do The call comes from Medical Center Hospital in Odessa, or from a family member who got the call at home at midnight. A 65-year-old man — a father, a husband, a brother — was riding his Harley-Davidson north on Andrews Highway on a Saturday night in March. At 8:49 p.m., a blue Honda Civic traveling south turned left east onto University Boulevard, directly into his path. The investigation by Odessa police found that the Honda failed to yield the right of way. The motorcycle struck the car. The rider went down with serious injuries. And the driver of the Honda did not stop. He did not check on the man he hit. He did not call for help. He drove away and left a 65-year-old person on the pavement. If you are reading this, you are the family. You are standing in a hospital hallway or sitting at a kitchen table with a phone full of missed calls and a head full of questions that will not wait for morning. We are going to answer the most important ones right now, and then we are going…

We are going to tell you everything we know about what happens next — not as a sales pitch, but as the straight legal truth from a trial team that has spent decades inside these cases. The crash happened at Andrews Highway and University on a Saturday night in March. A southbound Honda Civic turned left across a northbound Harley-Davidson, failed to yield, and then ran.

Beneath it is a case that is stronger, and more urgent, than most people realize. Here is why, and here is what to do about it.

What Happened on Andrews Highway in Odessa — and What It Means for Your Family You are reading this because someone you love was on Andrews Highway on a Thursday evening in Odessa, and a pickup truck driven by a man who should never have been behind the wheel changed everything in the seconds it took for four vehicles to collide at the intersection of Yukon. The Odessa Police Department charged the driver of that Dodge Ram with intoxication assault — a third-degree felony under Texas law — which means investigators already concluded that his impairment caused serious bodily injury to another person. That charge is not your civil case. But it is the strongest piece of evidence your civil case will ever have, and the insurance company knows it. We are Attorney911 — Legal Emergency Lawyers. We handle drunk-driving injury cases in Texas. And the first thing you need to understand is this: the proof that this crash was his fault is already being gathered by the police and the Ector County prosecutor — but the proof that could make your family’s case worth what it should be worth is disappearing, right now, on a clock you cannot see.…

A Drunk Driver With Three Prior DWI Convictions Ran a Red Light in Odessa — and a Motorcyclist Is Fighting for His Life in Lubbock If you are reading this from a hospital hallway in Lubbock, or from a kitchen table in Odessa where the phone just rang with news no family is ready to hear, we want you to understand one thing before anything else: what happened to your motorcyclist at 2:04 a.m. on August 9 at University Boulevard and Andrews Highway was not an accident. It was a choice — a choice made by a man who had already been convicted of driving drunk three times before, who got behind the wheel of a silver Jeep Commander again, who ran a red light in the commercial heart of Odessa, and who then ran away on foot while a 35-year-old man lay in the street with life-threatening injuries. The Odessa Police Department arrested him. He admitted to hitting the motorcycle. Officers determined he was drunk. They found nearly five ounces of marijuana in his possession. He was charged with Intoxication Assault Causing Serious Bodily Injury, Collision Involving Personal Injury, Possession of Marijuana, and Evading Arrest. He is in the…
