Blizzard trial postponed.

LACONIA, N.H. -- A trial on a negligent driving charge has been postponed for a New Hampshire woman who is serving a one-year sentence for killing her best friend in a speed boat crash.
Erica Blizzard, of Laconia, was convicted of negligent homicide in March in the death of Stephanie Beaudoin. Beaudoin was killed and Blizzard and another woman were injured when Blizzard's boat crashed into the ledge wall of Diamond Island in Lake Winnipesaukee.
The day after she was convicted, Blizzard was cited for driving 84 mph on Interstate 93. She was accused of driving in such a distracted manner she almost struck a state trooper who tried to flag her down.
She faced a July 27 trial on negligent driving in Laconia District Court. That has been postponed until Sept. 7.
