Trial Date Set: Omaha Doctor Accused of Killing Sioux Falls Woman
A Nebraska surgeon, accused of killing a Sioux Falls woman in a 2023 Omaha car accident, will stand trial in August.
The head-on collision took place on September 1, 2023 on Dodge Street in Omaha near the 62nd Street intersection.
According to police reports, 61-year-old Dr. Mark Carlson's Mercedes Benz was traveling as fast as 106 miles per hour just seconds before it struck a light pole and then a vehicle driven by 22-year-old Anna Bosma.
She was pronounced dead at the scene of the crash.
Carlson spent seven weeks in the hospital and then rehab before his arrest. He’s out on bond before trial.
If convicted, Carlson faces up to 20 years in prison.
Bosma was born in Yankton in 2001 and lived in Vermillion before moving to Sioux Falls in 2004.
She attended Mark Twain Elementary School, Patrick Henry Middle School, and Lincoln High School in Sioux Falls. In May of 2023, she graduated cum laude from South Dakota University with a degree in Exercise Science. In July of that year, she enrolled in the Occupational Therapy Doctorate program at the University of South Dakota.
