Before he was led away in handcuffs, former Johns Hopkins doctor Todd Sheridan gave a tearful apology to the family of the college student he struck while driving the wrong way drunk on Interstate 83 in Baltimore.

“I?m so sorry that this ever happened,” Sheridan said Monday in Baltimore City Circuit Court. “I?m so sorry. If I could put myself in her place, I would do it in a second. I know there?s nothing I can do to bring her back. All I can do is try to do some of these things that have been suggested to help keep her memory alive. I remember her every day, and I pray for her every day.”
