According to a report from the Iowa State Patrol, 31-year-old Nathan R. Wadsley of Belmond was riding a 2011 Harley-Davidson motorcycle northbound on Highway 69 near 150th Street outside Klemme, Iowa in Hancock county on Sunday, June 18. At the same time, 34-year-old Shannon L. Gamble of Garner was driving southbound on Highway 69 in a 2009 Chevy Impala, attempting to pass a southbound vehicle, when the vehicle struck Wadsely’s Harley head-on. The Harley came to rest in the east ditch and the Impala came to rest int he west ditch.
As a result, Gamble was transported by life flight to Mercy Hospital in Mason City with undisclosed injuries. Wadsley was pronounced dead at the scene.
However, further investigation has led to the arrest and charges brought against Gamble by the Iowa State Patrol. She is being held in the Cerro Gordo county jail on $25,000 bond and awaits a court hearing on October 4. Gamble was accused of bringing meth and marijuana into the Wright county jail back in 2014, a felony, but took a plea deal to just possession.
According to his obituary, Mr. Wadsley “will be greatly missed and fondly remembered for his mantra, ‘Let’s Get Wild.'” He left behind a wife and young daughter.
How is she out already? She killed a man while driving at excessive speeds, drunk, passing someone on a blind hill. Was seen at the bars while out on bail….And when did she get out? Did she really serve a justly amount?! Do an article on that!
Paroled in early 2024 … that’s Iowa justice
Illegals kill many people with vehicles and get away with it. Judges set very low bail so they run. No trial, no bad publicity. Yet an American does it and everyone wants to lynch her. Our legal system is hypocritical and corrupt. Nothing has changed since Sarah Root was killed by drunk illegal.
Jeser Cisneros-Hernandez swerved into 2 motorcycles, killing 4. His bail was only $5000. I still have the screen shot of his jail listing showing bail amount. Illegals get away with murder, literally.
Earl,
Do you have any updates on Jeser Cisneros-Hernandez? He killed 4 people on 7/1/17. He was scheduled for a status hearing on 11/9/18 at the Keith County District Court, case CR17-113, with Judge Birch. The court pdf file shows an interpreter and public defender.
I am a Keith County, NE resident, and often drive by the accident site.
White trash drunk killer!
Dumb bitch!
Stupid ass drunk driver kills an poor man just riding his motorcycle. Bring back the lynch mobs and let’s get this creature out of jail and give her what’s coming to her. I’m sick of drunk drivers killing people. My thoughts and prayers to the family, his wife and child. Shannon you need to get what’s coming to you!!!!!!
Why no lynching for Jeser Cisneros-Hernandez? He killed 4 Iowa bikers. Where is the outrage? Judge set him free on only $5000 bail. Where is the outage at the judge? I have screenshot proof by the way.
A sad, sad ordeal, that could have been easily avoided. I hope justice is given, and the family is give closure. Dumb people with dumb decisions.
Eye for an eye. Stand her in the road and let cars race at her.
