The Beth Condon Memorial Pathway is a recreation path in Yarmouth, Maine, United States. It is named in memory of 15-year-old Yarmouth High School sophomore Elizabeth Ann Condon, who was killed by drunk driver Martha Burke in 1993 as she walked along U.S. Route 1 with her boyfriend, James Young, having just been to a video store in Yarmouth Marketplace. Burke's car swerved into the breakdown lane, and while Young managed to avoid the car, Condon was hit and thrown 65 feet (20 m) over the guardrail and down an embankment. Burke pleaded guilty to manslaughter and was sentenced to twelve years, with eight years suspended.^[1]
