Media summary: Denise Gerzen died in a crash after a Harley Davidson driven by off-duty officer Eugene Bikulcius, who was DUI, hit a Dodge Charger, whose driver was also DUI. Gerzen was on the back of the motorcycle after she and Bikulcius left a neighborhood bar at about 1:50 a.m. The Harley struck the Dodge as its driver, Carol Miller, made an illegal left turn. Miller, 49, was arrested for misdemeanor DUI. Bikukcius' BAC was reportedly 0.24, but it wasn't until November 2008 that he was charged with misdemeanor drunk driving. Prosecutors said they believed police did not properly investigate the crash.
