Robert Hasebe caused the crash which saw NHS radiographer Noor Court, 26, fatally struck with a signpost.
A financial consultant who killed a young woman after going through a red light avoided jail today. Robert Hasebe caused the crash which saw NHS radiographer Noor Court, 26, fatally struck with a signpost as she walked near Glasgow 's O2 Academy on October 6, 2021.
The judge said: "Nothing I can say or do and no sentence the court can impose can compensate for Miss Court's death. Irrespective of what I impose today, you can move on with your life while the appalling loss of life for her family and friends will endure. It was in Eglinton Street that he failed to spot the red light, entered a junction before hitting another car. Hasebe's Toyota then mounted the pavement, smacked into the pole which then struck Miss Court. The children's ward worker tragically never survived despite the help of mercy crews who arrived.
Prosecutor Alex Prentice KC later said Hasebe had "not been paying attention" while driving. Mr Prentice also questioned him on his claim to police that he had been affected by the sun that morning. He said Hasebe had stated that to "provide an excuse" for what happened.Marco Guarino, defending, told the sentencing that his client does not intend to drive again. The lawyer added: "The impact of the incident cannot be ignored.
