In a deposition, Timothy Hansen claimed, 'It was undeniable to me between how he was carrying himself and the smell [of alcohol],' asserting he recognized Yep's intoxication.
Hansen alleged that Yep initially refused to share his identification and mentioned he was a police officer, which he perceived as intimidating after the accident.
Yep has denied the allegations, stating he was not drinking at the time of the crash, while the civil suit eventually settled in 2020 for over $25,000.
A representative from the Lurie administration remarked that the allegations from 2018 were 'unsubstantiated and wildly flung,' defending Yep amid the controversy.
