On Thursday, an Ocean County grand jury indicted the 24 year old man, Daniel J. Bark hailing from New Jersey in the hit-and-run case that claimed the life of the budding singer.

The jury handed out a four count indictment to Daniel J. Bark and levied multiple charges against him that include aggravated manslaughter, evading police authorities, death by auto and knowingly leaving the scene of the accident which eventually resulted in the death of the 25-year-old musical aspirant. According to sources, the indicted man remains in custody of the police authorities on a bail of $150,000. The accident which resulted in the untimely death of Alexis Cohen was, however, not the only incident in which the New Jersey man is said to have been involved in. The police authorities have revealed that at the time when the hit-and-run accident took place last year, they were already searching for him.

Alexis Cohen passed away after she received severe injuries to her head and torso in the accident that took place on July 25, 2009. Daniel J. Bark who was behind the wheels of the vehicle when it hit the aspiring musical artist, was detained by the police authorities the next day and was charged with drunken driving. Meanwhile, Alexis Cohen gained extensive popularity during the seventh and eight season of the musical reality series “American Idol” despite the fact that she never went ahead the audition rounds, due to her furious tirade against the judges who showed her the door.
