Jimmy is being charged with death by dangerous driving

Jimmy in Emmerdale is being charged with death by dangerous driving, but is Jimmy leaving Emmerdale?

Earlier this year, Jimmy was in a panic thinking his wife Nicola was in a dangerous situation. At the same time, he needed to go get his kids from The Hop, fearing Juliette was trying to take them.

As he was driving his truck, he ended up not being able to see when the glare from the sun got in his eyes.

He drove his truck off the road and crashed into Mandy and Paul’s wedding barn. However Liv and Paul were inside the barn arguing.
