TWO families united in grief say they are determined to get justice for Jade Rice and Danny Atkinson.

But the Crown Prosecution Service say there is nothing else it can do.

Their mothers Elaine Noble and Linda Adams say there are still too many unanswered questions after the teenagers’ deaths in January 2006.

Fighting back tears, they vowed to find out what happened when the car their 17-year-old children were travelling in struck a tree at Bradley Road, Bradley.

Last week the driver Mohammed Tanwir walked free after an aborted trial and dismissed hearing.

Both families have asked how someone driving a car which kills two people can escape without even a point on their licence.

Danny’s mum Linda Adams claims she was not even told about the second hearing against Mr Tanwir last week.

Mrs Adams said: “I need answers to so many questions – we both do.

“The past two years have been so difficult for us all.

“We need closure and having our questions answered will help give us that.”

Jade’s mother Elaine Noble added: “We don’t want revenge, we just want to know what happened – a proper trial with all the witnesses and facts.

“I believed in the justice system, I had no reason not to, but this is a nightmare for us.”

Jade and Danny were both looking to their futures when they were tragically killed.

Jade had signed up for a hairdressing course and Danny was due to start a job the following day.

Mrs Adams says she and her daughters Leander, 14, and Paige, six, remember Danny fondly.

She said: “I remember someone saying: ‘He’s a good lad, he’ll look out for you all when he get’s older’. I thought he’d always be around for us.

“I can still remember the day the police came and told us – it feels like it has only just happened.

“I still miss him.”

It was the Crown Prosecution Service which advised that Mr Tanwir be charged with causing death by dangerous driving and failing to stop after an accident.

A spokesman said: “In November 2006 the judge at Bradford ruled that there was insufficient evidence to put the charge of causing death by dangerous driving before a jury.

“Following this ruling, the CPS worked closely with West Yorkshire Police to obtain additional scientific evidence. On the basis of that evidence an application was made to the High Court to reinstate the causing death by dangerous driving charge, an application which was refused.

“Subsequent to this decision a trial of the failing to stop charge took place at Huddersfield Magistrates’ Court. Having heard all the evidence, the court acquitted Mr Tanwir of that charge.

“Peter Mann, Area Crown Prosecutor, has maintained personal contact with the victim’s families.

“Mr Mann has explained fully the prosecution strategy, the outcome of each hearing and the steps the CPS and the police have taken in what has been a sustained effort to launch a prosecution in respect of a very serious offence, where the risk of failure was always present.

“As has been explained to the families, there are now no further proceedings that can be brought by the CPS against Mr Tanwir in respect of that incident.

“Our thoughts at this time are with the families of Danny and Jade.”
