Trent Allen Brooks was found guilty of abduction, carjacking, use of a firearm in the commission of a felony and hit and run in Caroline Circuit Court. Virginia State Police reported in 2012: the pair left the scene of an accident and forced their way into a man’s truck, told him they had a gun, and demanded he drive them away.  About a mile later the pair told the driver to stop, jumped out of the truck, and ran off into the woods.

On Saturday, Sept. 22, 2012, after a crash at the intersection of Route 1 and Marye Road in Virginia, police said the driver of a Pontiac G6 failed to stop at a stop sign and was hit by a 1998 Dodge Durango.

Three people inside the Pontiac were not injured. However, five people inside the Dodge, three of whom suffered injuries, were taken to Mary Washington Hospital in Fredericksburg.

Police said as Trooper M.C. Hite was attending to several of the injured, the Pontiac’s driver, Cheryl Marie Ruedi, and backseat passenger, Trent Alen Brooks, left the scene on foot.

Authorities said witnesses spotted them getting into a nearby pickup that was located near the crash scene.

Later on, around 7:15 p.m., a man told troopers at the crash scene he had been abducted by Ruedi and Brooks. The man stated that he was forced into his pickup truck by the man, who said he had a gun, and told to drive the pair away from the scene. They traveled west on Marye Road for about half a mile when Brooks ordered the man to stop the pickup truck. Brooks and Reudi then ran from the pickup truck and fled into the woods on foot.

Cheryl Marie Ruedi

Ruedi was charged with felony hit and run, possession with intent to distribute marijuana, driving on a suspended license, reckless driving, and failure to obey a highway sign. She was sentenced to 30 days in jail for possession with the intent to sell drugs. The carjacking charge was dropped. Ruedi was also wanted by the Spotsylvania County Sheriff’s Office for grand larceny of a stolen vehicle.

Brooks was charged with abduction, use of a firearm in the commission of a felony, carjacking, hit and run, possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, possession of a firearm with an active protective order, brandishing a firearm, and assault. Brooks was also wanted by the Spotsylvania County Sheriff’s Office for assault on a family member.

Brooks was sentenced to eight years in prison. With a new DUI conviction, backup time might see Brooks spending a few more years in prison.
