Trooper Pahira Jr. was inspecting an unrelated semi-truck early on Wednesday morning when Bon veered off of the road and onto the shoulder, striking a vehicle and causing a deadly chain reaction that eventually led to the death of Pahira Jr.
Bon is an illegal alien from Haiti who was brought into the United States by the Biden administration through the CHNV “humanitarian parole program.” He attempted to apply for Temporary Protected Status, but was denied and would ultimately have his legal status terminated under the Trump administration.
Bon was granted his commercial driver’s license by the commonwealth of Massachusetts in March of 2025.
Trooper Michael Pahira Jr. was just 44-years-old at the time of his death.
