His name was Gregory Glenn Biggs, and instead of calling 911 or attempting to help Biggs herself, Mallard drove home \u2014\u00a0and left Biggs in her garage to die.<\/p>\n
Biggs, still alive, struggled to free himself before succumbing to his wounds several hours later. Mallard then enlisted some friends to dispose of his body. But after mentioning the incident at a party, she was arrested.<\/p>\n
The case drew national media attention, and Mallard ultimately received a 50-year prison sentence for Biggs\u2019 murder.<\/p>\n

Find a GraveGregory Glenn Biggs, who suffered from mental health problems, had fallen on hard times.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen I hit him there was a loud noise and all this glass started flying in the car. There was a lot of wind,\u201d Mallard later testified, according to the Los Angeles Times<\/a>. \u201cI never saw his face. He was on the floor, underneath the dashboard on the passenger side. One leg was, like, somewhat out of the front glass, from the crease of the knee down. I didn\u2019t know what to think. I was scared and asking God to tell me what to do.\u201d<\/p>\n The force of the collision had lodged Biggs into Mallard\u2019s windshield, but instead of calling for help, Mallard drove home with Biggs pinned in place. Though she was a nursing assistant, Mallard did not attempt to render medical aid. Instead, she left Biggs to die her garage. <\/p>\n How Chante Mallard Disposed Of Her Victim\u2019s Body<\/p>\n Trapped in the windshield of Chante Mallard\u2019s car, Gregory Glenn Biggs slowly died. Bloody fingerprints found inside the car suggested that he\u2019d tried to free himself, and The New York Times reported<\/a> that Biggs took one to two hours to die. If Mallard had called for help, however, Biggs likely could have been saved. <\/p>\n Instead, Mallard waited until Biggs died and then phoned her friend, Clete Jackson for help. Mallard, Jackson, and Jackson\u2019s cousin Herbert Cleveland then worked together to dispose of the body. The three of them transported Biggs to nearby Cobb Park and dumped him there. <\/p>\n The City of Fort WorthCobb Park, where Chante Mallard and her accomplices dumped Gregory Glenn Biggs\u2019 body. <\/p>\n Jackson later testified that he refused to burn Biggs\u2019 body. Instead, he claimed he tried to put it in a conspicuous place where it could be found easily, \u201csomewhere so his family can find him so they can bury him.\u201d<\/p>\n Indeed, an off-duty firefighter soon came upon Biggs\u2019 remains. At 9:30 a.m. on October 27, he called 911 to report finding a dead body in the park. Biggs\u2019 body was covered in shards of glass, and Biggs\u2019 leg was contorted with his left foot lying across his stomach. Investigators immediately suspected that Biggs had been the victim of a hit and run. <\/p>\n Soon afterward, the police were able to identify the body as Gregory Glenn Biggs, a 37-year-old unhoused man who lived in a shelter. Despite his struggles, Biggs had found sporadic work as a bricklayer, and remained a supportive figure in the life of his 17-year-old son, Brandon.<\/p>\n But the circumstances of his death were a mystery \u2014\u00a0until a few months later. <\/p>\n \u2018I Need To Be Punished\u2019: Chante Mallard\u2019s Trial And Sentencing<\/p>\n A few months after hitting Gregory Glenn Biggs with her car, Chante Mallard went to a party. While there, Mallard told a story about going to a club, drinking and taking ecstacy, and then hitting \u201csome white guy\u201d with her car. Mallard even admitted that she\u2019d driven home with the man stuck in her windshield \u2014\u00a0and that he was still alive. <\/p>\n One of the partygoers called the police on Feb. 25, 2002 to report what Mallard had said. Investigators then went to Mallard\u2019s home, where they were stunned to find her damaged car still in the garage. <\/p>\n \u201cHere we are, four months later, and the car\u2019s still there,\u201d prosecutor Christy Jack told Oxygen<\/a>, \u201cand hair and blood is still in the headliner.\u201d <\/p>\n YouTubeChante Mallard\u2019s windshield, as seen after Gregory Glenn Biggs\u2019 death.<\/p>\n Mallard was arrested and her trial began on June 23, 2003. It largely focused on how Mallard could have likely saved Biggs\u2019 life, if she had called for help instead of leaving him to die. <\/p>\n According to CNN<\/a>, Tarrant County medical examiner Nizam Peerwani testified that Biggs had no \u201cinstantaneously fatal injuries. He did not have any spinal cord trauma, no brain trauma, no major cardiac lacerations or lacerations to the aorta or major blood vessels.\u201d <\/p>\n Due to Biggs\u2019 lack of \u201cserious injuries,\u201d Peerwani stated that he could have stayed alive for several hours. Fire Captain Jim Sowder also testified that every member of the Fort Worth Fire Department could have saved Biggs\u2019 life. <\/p>\n In the end, the jury deliberated for a couple of hours before delivering their verdict. They found Chante Mallard guilty of murder and tampering with evidence. According to the Los Angeles Times, Mallard apologized and accepted responsibility before her sentencing, stating: \u201cI have ruined the lives of other people. I have put people through pain. I am so sorry. I do feel like I need to be punished.\u201d<\/p>\n She was ultimately sentenced to 50 years in prison for the murder charge, with an additional 10 years for the tampering with evidence charge. She will be eligible for parole in 2027.<\/p>\n Jackson, Mallard\u2019s accomplice in dumping the body, pleaded guilty to tampering with evidence and was sentenced to 10 years in prison. His cousin, Cleveland, received nine years. After finishing his sentence, Jackson has been in and out of prison for firearms and drug-related charges.<\/p>\n The Aftermath Of Gregory Glenn Biggs\u2019 Murder, From A Wrongful Death Lawsuit To \u2018Stuck\u2019<\/p>\n Meanwhile, Biggs\u2019 son, Brandon, filed a wrongful death lawsuit for his father, which was settled out of court \u2014 but also extended his forgiveness to Mallard. However, he has expressed no interest in ever speaking to her. <\/p>\n As of 2017, Biggs told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram<\/a> that he hadn\u2019t spoken to Mallard \u2014 and doesn\u2019t plan on it. <\/p>\n \u201cWhat would she say?\u201d he asked. \u201cDo you talk about the weather? I don\u2019t know, you know, so it\u2019s not something I could foresee being fruitful.\u201d<\/p>\n Find a GraveAfter Brandon Biggs wrote an essay about his father\u2019s death, he was rewarded a $10,000 scholarship.<\/p>\n He also spoke out against the 2007 movie Stuck, a fictionalized version of his father\u2019s murder, and even tried to sue to stop the film\u2019s production. Biggs additionally refused to participate in a true crime documentary about his father\u2019s death. <\/p>\n \u201cAs time goes by, this is new for people, and you know, I live it.
