The victim, 46-year-old Andrea Gordon of Duxbury, was jogging when she was hit on Washington Street on June 9, 2019. She was brought to South Shore Hospital in Weymouth, where she died from her injuries two days later.
The vehicle Blackmore was driving was identified after being seen in surveillance photos.
