Thomas William Druce (born June 18, 1961) is a former Republican member of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives.
As of February 2020, according to information Druce posted on his LinkedIn site, he worked as the principal of Phoenix Strategy Group, "a research and public policy firm" and does business development for Pennsylvania Water Specialties Company.
[4] In July 1999, while driving, Druce struck and killed 42-year-old Harrisburg pedestrian Kenneth Cains, a former U.S. Marine who had served in the Vietnam War.
After attempting to cover his tracks by repairing his Jeep SUV, filing a false accident claim with his insurance company, and lying to police, Druce eventually pled guilty to a hit and run for leaving the scene of an accident, insurance fraud, and tampering with evidence.
Although he admitted to a night of drinking before the hit-and-run, he was able to avoid additional drunk driving charges because too much time had passed to test his blood-alcohol level.
