He will be committed to a secure psychiatric facility.Snider, 69, pleaded no contest to second-degree reckless homicide for the March 28, 2025, crash which killed Elijah Sowin.Three doctors examined Snider and all determined he suffered from a mental disease, Judge Anthony Nehls said. The specific diagnosis was not disclosed in court.The plea agreement calls for Snider to be committed to a secure psychiatric facility for 20 years, but the details will be finalized at a Dec. 9 hearing.Sowin's grandmother addressed the court, describing the loss the family has suffered due to Eli's death. The family would prefer a prison sentence, she said.Police said Snider "intentionally swerved" his vehicle into the path of a motorcycle on S. Main Street in Fond du Lac. After collecting and assessing evidence and interviewing witnesses, investigators determined, "the driver of the passenger vehicle intentionally swerved into the path of the motorcyclist, causing the motorcycle to crash into the driver's side of the vehicle."Snider, the driver of the vehicle, was then arrested.Chief Aaron Goldstein said in a news release:This was not an accident, but a deliberate and dangerous act that led directly to the death of a young man from our greater Fond du Lac community. Reckless driving, especially actions intended to harm or endanger others will not be tolerated. This tragedy could have been avoided. We are dedicated to ensuring that those responsible for crimes that endanger public safety are held accountable for their actions. Our thoughts remain with the victim's family and friends during this difficult time.</div></body>
