    Motorcyclists Corey and Amy Waldman were traveling on their motorcycles on US 35 east of Dayton, Ohio, when they were hit from behind by Ohio Highway Patrol Trooper Jacob Daymon.

     

    Authorities have recently released the dashcam video a full month after the collision occurred around 9:45 p.m. on the evening of Saturday, August 17th.  The footage is disturbing to watch as it shows the Trooper not even appearing to slow down or avoid the couple before the impact.

    Daymon has maintained that he did not see the Beavercreek, Ohio, couple before the impact.

    Typically, dashcam videos are a matter of public record; however, the Ohio State Police refused to release the footage until they were sued by local news stations demanding its release.

    Check out the motorcycle accident video here.  It's brutal.
