Graniteville woman killed Friday night near Sweetwater Road ruled accidental death


web posted May 27, 2009
MERRIWETHER – A Graniteville woman was killed when she was struck by a Ford Explorer driven by a Trenton man Friday night. Aiken County Coroner Tim Carlton said Tuesday that 51-year-old Cathy Barnes was struck in the northbound lanes of Highway 25 near the Sweetwater Road intersection around 11:30 pm and was pronounced dead on the scene.

“The circumstances surrounding her death are currently under investigation by the Aiken County Coroner's Office and the South Carolina Highway Patrol,” Mr. Carlton said.

Ms. Barnes was struck by a late model Ford Explorer driven by John Whisnant of Trenton who was traveling north on Highway 25. Mr. Whisnant will not be charged in this crash and was not at fault. Ms.Barnes may have been intoxicated at the time, toxicology results are pending.

Completion of the investigation on Tuesday, along with autopsy findings, revealed
that this death will be ruled as accidental. The cause of death was said to be multiple body trauma.

This is the 12th fatal crash in Aiken County in 2009.
