Exec who served in Clinton and Obama administrations killed by turbulence on jet over New England
The passenger killed on a private jet that experienced severe turbulence while flying over New England last week has been identified as a prominent Washington lawyer who served on both the Clinton and Obama administrations.
Also an alumnus of The National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States - better known as the 9/11 Commission - Dana J. Hyde's name was released by Connecticut cops investigating the incident on Monday.
Hyde, 55, was one of five onboard the DC-bound aircraft, which was forced to divert to Bradley International Airport in Connecticut late Friday afternoon after encountering the unforeseen instability.
Others onboard included Hyde's husband and son, as well as two crew members - all of whom survived. The family had reportedly been heading back to their home in Cabin John, Maryland when the turbulence unexpectedly hit.
The plane had been traveling from Keene, New Hampshire, before diverting to Bradley, where the high-profile attorney was rushed to a hospital and pronounced dead.
