2/14/14 - A Livingston County woman is expected to enter a plea later this month in connection with a motorcycle crash that claimed the life of a Brazilian man in Howell Township. 52-year-old Susiter Doses of Howell was charged with a misdemeanor moving violation causing death in connection with the death of 20-year-old William Naatz. Naatz was pronounced dead at a hospital following the August 3rd crash last summer while Doses was treated and released at the scene. Court records show the case has been held up due to the lack of an interpreter despite efforts to contact one, and that Doses has accepted an offer and would like to enter a plea. An interpreter will be contacted one last time ahead of a February 26th hearing but Doses was instructed to bring a family member to the hearing in case an interpreter is needed. Police say Naatz was traveling west on Grand River on his motorcycle when he was hit by a 2007 Ford Edge driven by Doses, which had pulled out from the VGâs parking lot. Naatz was attending college in Michigan and was the son of a city councilman in Blumenau, Brazil. (JM)
