The driver who drove the wrong way on the 520 bridge and killed a woman on her way to work in Bellevue has pleaded guilty to vehicular homicide. Michael Anthony Robertson made a U-turn while driving eastbound on the bridge on April 4 and smashed into a vehicle driven by Morgan Williams, 58, of Seattle. Williams was headed to work at Eddie Bauer.
The accident occurred at about 5:30 a.m. He collided with Williams near the Montlake on-ramp. Williams later died at Harborview Medical Center.
According to police, an empty bottle of whiskey was found in in Robertson’s Ford Explorer SUV. He was awaiting trial on another DUI charge in Pierce County at the time of the crash.
Robertson will be sentenced July 26. Prosecutors will recommend a top of the range sentence of 126 months in prison.
