TAMPA — Detectives want to know who killed Wendy Irene Anthony.

The 43-year-old Tampa woman was found Saturday morning, lying on the side of the road with critical injuries from a hit-and-run vehicle.

Anthony, who was hearing-impaired, died late Monday at Tampa General Hospital, increasing detectives' interest in finding the person behind the wheel of the pickup they think struck her.

A Hillsborough sheriff's spokeswoman said the accident happened at County Road 579 north of Sligh Avenue, just before she was found at 7:24 a.m. Saturday.

Detectives think the vehicle was a 1994 to 2001 Dodge Ram pickup of unknown color.

Tracey Marshall, Army Reserve Sergeant, gets job back

Clerk’s office gives Reservist job back

TAMPA, Fla. — Hillsborough County’s court clerk has agreed to reinstate an Army Reserve sergeant to her old job as part of a lawsuit settlement.

The Department of Justice reported Thursday that it had settled the suit on behalf of Tracey Marshall because the circuit court clerk’s office failed to re-employ her at her previous position. Marshall had been a supervisor in the criminal division and wanted that job back when she returned from active duty in October 2005.

The suit also said Marshall’s superiors retaliated against her when she made a complaint under a federal law protecting jobs for people who serve in the military.

Besides giving Marshall her old job back, the clerk’s office will pay her a $2,500 monetary award.
