Trevor Bryant Lee
On Tuesday, January 3, 2017, the Warren County Grand Jury came back with a True Bill on the direct indictment of Trevor Bryant Lee, 29, for Reckless Involuntary DUI Manslaughter for the death of Brandi Nicole Cook. On February 29, 2016 at 12:24 a.m. a 911 call came in to report a single vehicle accident had occurred on Remount Road. The first responding officers located the accident in the 800 block of Remount Road and found two people trapped inside the vehicle.
Brandi Nicole Cook, a 24-year-old Front Royal resident, was pronounced dead at the scene. The Medical Examiners report states Cook died of blunt force trauma to the head and chest. The driver of the vehicle, Trevor Bryant Lee, was transported to the Winchester Medical Center by helicopter. Neither Cook nor Lee were wearing their seat belt at the time of the crash. The accident reconstruction and ensuing investigation conducted by the Front Royal Police Department and Virginia State Police, revealed excessive speed and substance impairment were factors in the crash.
On 01/03/2017, Lee was arrested by the Warren County Sheriff’s Office and held without bond pending a court appearance.
