Dunyadar Gasanov, the former co-owner of Westfield Transport, has pleaded guilty to three counts of making false statements to federal investigators regarding a 2019 crash in New Hampshire that resulted in the deaths of seven motorcyclists from the Jarheads Motorcycle Club. Gasanov was accused of falsifying driver logs and instructing employees to deactivate logging devices to circumvent federal safety regulations. He misled investigators about his relationship with the driver, Volodymyr Zhukovskyy, who had been acquitted of manslaughter charges related to the crash. Gasanov faces a potential sentence of five years in prison, with a hearing scheduled for November 21. His brother, Dartanayan Gasanov, has pleaded not guilty and is awaiting trial. The case has drawn attention to regulatory failures in the trucking industry and the importance of adherence to safety protocols.
