CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. (WDEF) — A judge on Monday denied a new trial for former EMT Justin Whaley.

He was convicted last fall of vehicular homicide and DUI for a crash in Soddy Daisy in 2018 that killed a man.

Whaley was sentenced to nine years in prison.

On Monday, his defense raised several questions that they believe warranted a new trial.

Judge Boyd Patterson did not agree with any of them.
