Man Gets Up To 15 Years For Fatal Nassau DWI Crash With Motorcyclist: DA

JERICHO, NY — A man was sentenced to up to 15 years in prison on Tuesday for a DWI collision on Jericho Turnpike that killed Stanley Soobrian, a 29-year-old father of four, in March 2022, Nassau County District Attorney Anne Donnelly announced.

Jordan Solomon, 32, of Jericho, on March 20 pleaded guilty to aggravated vehicular homicide, second-degree assault, and aggravated driving while intoxicated. Solomon was sentenced to 6 and one-half to 15 years in prison. The DA recommended a 7 to 21-year prison sentence.

"Jordan Solomon, out celebrating a new job at a local restaurant, made the decision to get behind the wheel of his car at nearly three times the legal limit for alcohol and speed down Jericho Turnpike," Donnelly said in a news release. "That disastrous choice resulted in a crash that cost Stanley Soobrian his life and left four children fatherless. This is a tragic reminder of the devastation caused by drunk and reckless driving. Our hearts remain with Stanley’s many family members and friends as this defendant is sentenced for his crimes."

Soloman was driving his 2021 Kia K5 west on Jericho Turnpike while highly intoxicated around 11:45 p.m. March 15, 2022, officials said.

Soloman was going 100 mph when he crashed into the back of Soobrian's motorcycle, causing Soobrian to crash into Soloman's windshield and wedging the motorcycle into the front of Soloman's Kia, authorities said.

Soobrian was pronounced dead at the scene at 11:57 p.m.

Solomon had a BAC of 0.23 approximately two hours after the crash. He was arrested a short distance from the crash by Nassau police officers. He was represented by Melvyn Roth.
