Milford, Conn. (WTNH) - A former Milford police officer pled not guilty to manslaughter charges following an on-duty crash that killed two teenagers.

A dashboard camera showed Jason Anderson's police cruiser speeding down the Boston Post Road in Orange and colliding with another car back in June of 2009. He was not responding to a call and he did not have his lights or siren on.

Dave Servin and Ashlie Krakowski, both 19-years old and from Orange, were killed.

Anderson's case was continued until June. The defense has hired an independent researcher to reconstruct the accident.

"These things generally take a little longer than ordinary criminal cases because it's so complicated and the state police, for instance, in their accident reconstruction of the case before the arrest took about five months," said Anderson's attorney, Hugh Keefe.

Anderson was fired from the force in December.
