Safety Town 2013 – City of St. George, Utah

“We cannot always build the future for our youth, but we can build our youth for the future.”  – Franklin D. Roosevelt

At McMullin Injury Law, we recognize the value of education and in particular the value of educating our youth.  For that reason, we are proud to be associated with the City of St. George and their youth safety program Safety Town.

The safety town program is very special as it teaches “important, life-long lessons about safety.”  The program educates our kids on pedestrian safety, internet safety, bike/scooter safety, stranger danger, drug awareness, fire safety, bullying and more.

As a graduate of Safety Town, our attorney Anthony McMullin, is fully aware of the fun and education that comes from attending this program.  In fact, even in his “old age” Mr. McMullin remembers attending Safety Town.  These memories include, riding little push cars around the painted streets of Safety Town, meeting McGruff the Crime Dog, and enjoying cookies and orange drink from the local McDonalds.

Kudos to the City of St. George for sponsoring and putting on this great program for our kids.  If you would like more information on Safety Town and how to get your kids

Afternoon Session of Safety Town

St. George man killed by distracted driver.

We all know that we should not text and drive. We’ve heard the statistics; nine people per day are killed by distracted drivers, texting while driving is a greater impairment than drunk driving, those that text while they drive are twenty-three times more likely to be in a car crash. Those facts should be compelling, yet nearly half of all drivers admit to texting while driving.

On March 4th, 2013, David and Leslee Henson, of St. George, Utah, decided to go for a walk down Dixie Drive towards Sunbrook Golf Course. A driver, speeding down Dixie Drive on her way to work, decided to send a routine text message. Fred Konrath was also driving that day. His car was rear-ended at a high-speed by the texter. All he could do was watch as his car was sent in an out-of-control skid in the direction of the sidewalk where David and Leslee were walking. Fred witnessed Dave desperately attempt to push his wife to safety. They were both hit. Dave Henson lost his life that morning. Leslee underwent major reconstructive surgery and intensive care. Thankfully, she is expected to recover.

This is Leslee’s story . . .
