MIAMI (CBSMiami) - Back in February, Miami-Dade corrections officer Kedson Julmiste was involved in a car accident that left him paralyzed from the chest down.
Officer Julmiste's sister said that on February 28, 2021, Kedson was on his way to work when he was involved in a head-on collision with a driver who had made an illegal u-turn.
