2014-02-08  — Rutherford County Sheriff Robert Arnold reported that one driver allegedly was smoking marijuana in a stolen car when teams of officers conducted bar checks Saturday night, authorities said.

Sheriff’s Deputy Matt King charged suspect Danny Collier, 26, of Johnson Street in Smyrna with DUI, driving on a suspended license, possession of marijuana and felony theft of the vehicle.

Collier allegedly possessed the illegal drug Ecstasy at the scene, said Sheriff’s Lt. Joe Gray. When booked into the jail, a search found Collier allegedly possessed cocaine hidden inside his body. He was additionally charged with felony possession of cocaine and bringing contraband into a penal institution. Collier was released from jail two days ago.

Tennessee Highway Patrol troopers, Murfreesboro Police and Sheriff’s Office deputies conducted the bar checks and a sobriety checkpoint Friday on Rutherford Boulevard in Murfreesboro. Troopers and sheriff’s deputies conducted bar checks in Smyrna and a checkpoint on Northwest Broad Street Saturday night.

Troopers, police and deputies charged eight drivers with DUI, the THP reported.

Sheriff Robert Arnold said salaries of deputies involved in the DUI enforcement effort were paid by funds from the Governor’s Highway Safety Office.

“We are happy to partner with GHSO, the Tennessee Highway Patrol and Murfreesboro Police to remove drunk drivers off the streets through the bar checks and sobriety checkpoints.”

During the checkpoint and bar checks, troopers, police and deputies also recovered marijuana and Schedule II pills, the THP reported. They made two felony drug arrests, three misdemeanor drug arrests and a total of seven misdemeanor arrests. They recovered one weapon.

Officers issued a total of 66 citations including violations of the seat belt, insurance, open container and registration laws. They issued 10 warnings.

The high-speed party cruise that ended the lives of six people at Diamond Bar on the 60 Freeway on Sunday morning will be leaving families reeling for years and one young woman facing prison, perhaps for the rest of her life.  The Los Angeles County coroner’s office identified the deceased as Kristin Melissa Young, 24 of Chino; Maya Louise Culbreath, 24, of Rialto; Gregorio Mejia-Martinez, 47, of Huntington Park; Ester Delgado (age unknown) of Huntington Park; Leticia Ibarra, 42, of Huntington Park; Jessica Jasmine Mejia, 20, of Huntington Park. The coroner’s office said Gregorio Mejia-Martinez and Leticia Ibarra were married.

Their daughter, Jessica Mejia, and another relative, Ester Delgado, were also killed. The suspected drunk driver, Olivia Carolee Culbreath, 21, was headed east on the westbound 60 Freeway Sunday around 4:40a.m., when she was involved in the violent collision, the California Highway Patrol said.

2014-02-11  —KTLA is reporting that the woman charged with DUI in the deaths of six people, Olivia Carolee Culbreath, had a prior DUI arrest and her sister, whom police say she killed in this horrible Sunday morning carnage had multiple DUI convictions. Her license had been suspended but had California court officials sent her to jail, she might still be alive. 

Four members of the same family were riding in the Explorer, according to the coroner’s office: Gregorio Mejia-Martinez and Leticia Ibarra, their daughter, Jessica Mejia, and Jessica’s grandmother, Ester Delgado.

Gregorio Mejia-Martinez and Ester Delgado died on scene, while Leticia Ibarra and Jessica Mejia died later at a hospital, the coroner’s office stated.

All four had apparently been ejected from the Explorer, according to a CHP statement that described the collision and information from the coroner’s office.

Culbreath was 17 when she convicted of a DUI in 2010 in San Bernardino juvenile court, the Los Angeles Times reported, citing DMV officials. She had at least two more traffic citations before her license was reinstated in December 2011, The Times reported.

Maya Culbreath also had multiple DUI convictions, and her license was suspended last year and had not been reinstated at the time of the crash, the newspaper reported.

Culbreath was arrested on suspicion of felony driving under the influence of alcohol causing great bodily injury or death, and of felony manslaughter, according to a news release issued by the CHP.  Read more:

CHULA VISTA, Calif. – The San Diego County Medical Examiner’s Office on Saturday publicly named the 37-year-old man killed in a chain-reaction series of crashes on a freeway near Sweetwater Regional Park early Friday morning.

Christian Franco of Chula Vista was ejected from his vehicle and was pronounced dead on the scene, CHP public-affairs Officer Jake Sanchez said. Franco died from multiple blunt force injuries, according to the Medical Examiner’s Office.

10News learned Franco played baseball for Sweetwater High School and Chico State. For Chico State baseball coach Dave Taylor, the pain is almost too much.

“It’s tough … It really is. Like I said, I’ve never gone through it before,” he said.

Taylor has never before lost a player in 18 years coaching baseball at Chico State. He says Franco was more like family.

“There are loyal people out there but he was, you know, at the top of the list as far as just good guys,” said Taylor.

Taylor says that although it has been a long time since Franco played outfield for his team in 1999 and 2000, as Chico State took on UC San Diego Friday evening ….MORE

Three additional vehicles subsequently became involved in the accident. The decedent was confirmed dead by responding fire personnel and officers.”

DUI Checkpoint Nets 2 Arrests

2014-02-16 — Norco, CA – The Riverside County Sheriff’s Department /  Jurupa Valley Station / Norco Office conducted a DUI/Driver’s License  checkpoint on February 15, 2014, at Hidden Valley Parkway and Corona Avenue between  the hours of 8:00 p.m. and 3:00 a.m. Checkpoints are placed in locations that have  the greatest opportunity for achieving drunk and drugged driving deterrence and  provide the greatest safety for officers and the public.

DUI/Driver’s License checkpoints have been shown to lower DUI  deaths and injuries. A major component  of these checkpoints are the deterrent effects it has on those who might drive drunk  or drugged impaired, bringing about more awareness and encouraging everyone to  use sober designated drivers.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration  (NHTSA), checkpoints have provided the most effective documented results of any  of the DUI enforcement strategies, while also yielding considerable cost savings  of $6 for every $1 spent. Ninety Percent  of California drivers approve of checkpoints.

• 459 Vehicles through the checkpoint
• 459 Vehicles Screened
• 2 DUI-Alcohol suspects arrested
• 10 Drivers cited/arrested for operating a vehicle unlicensed  or while suspended/revoked
• 1 Citation issued

The Riverside County Sheriff’s Department / Jurupa Valley  Station / Norco Office will be conducting another DUI/Driver’s License  Checkpoint on Saturday, March 15, 2014, in our ongoing commitment to lowering  deaths and injuries upon our streets and highways.

Maryland State Trooper Shane Mitchell, left, crash scene / Graysonville VFD

From WCTR Feb. 6, 2014 —

Manslaughter charges filed in August Kent Narrows crash

Driver crossed center line and hit motorcycle

Last August, in the course of my duties as a Maryland State Trooper, I witnessed a horrific accident involving a motorcycle and a Nissan Versa. The driver of the Nissan was under the influence of alcohol. The two motorcycle riders were thrown and became fully engulfed in flames.  The male rider was trapped between the car and motorcycle in a pool of burning fuel.

I extinguished the passenger and ran towards the blaze.  I pulled the motorcycle operator out of the area and extinguished him. The passenger passed away a couple hours later. The driver survived for a few months before dying.

The late driver’s widow recently sent me a letter on behalf of their family expressing their gratitude towards me. The letter hit home because many people do not appreciate what we do day in and day out.

This letter, written to my supervisor, reminds us that we are appreciated.

Dear Corporal Williams,

This letter is long overdue. On August 11, 2013, my husband, Perry Hunter, was the victim of a drunk-driving accident. Riding with a friend on his motorcycle, he was struck head-on by a vehicle heading in the opposite direction. 

Witness to the accident was Trooper Shane Mitchell, a 24-year old young man. I first spoke with Trooper Mitchell the morning following the accident. It was then that he related the details of the accident to me. Trooper Mitchell told me how he was waiting to make a turn when the accident happened in front of him.

He pulled my husband from the fire that had immediately engulfed the car, the motorcycle, and both of its riders. My husband was caught between the two vehicles, suffering multiple broken bones, and burns to 50% of his body. I still find it hard to believe that Trooper Mitchell did not suffer any burns himself when he reached in to pull my husband clear. 

My husband spent 5 days at Shock Trauma and over two and a half months at Bayview’s Burn Unit. Each week Trooper Mitchell would call to inquire about his condition and how our family was coping. If, for any reason, he was unable to call within a week’s time, he apologized immediately on his next call!

The doctors at Shock Trauma told us that had Trooper Mitchell not been on the scene and acted as quickly as he did, my husband would have died there, on Route 18, without his family around him. One of the witnesses to the accident shared with us that Perry’s words to him were that he wanted to see his family, that he had to see his family. 

The selfless actions of this 24-year-old gave us those precious, final moments we otherwise would not have been able to spend with Perry. As a longtime employee of Johns Hopkins Hospital, Perry received countless cards expressing best wishes and prayers for his recovery, and messages that just wanted to relate how well he was thought of and missed at work. We were able to read those messages to him and play the CDs of his favorite jazz musicians. 

Perry’s sisters and aging parents were able to hold him and tell him that they loved him. Our daughters were able to assure him that they would be fine. I was able to remind him that “his girls loved him”.

This letter may not speak adequately of the bravery shown by Trooper Mitchell that Sunday evening. Perry survived almost another 3 months. The call to Trooper Mitchell was a difficult one to make. I found his words of consolation to be those of someone more seasoned and experienced than I would have expected of someone young enough to be my son. He was sympathetic and sincere, but I couldn’t help but wish, however selfishly, that the news were different, as much for his sake, as ours.

Yet, no one did more than the young man who risked his life to save another. Even though my husband did not survive, to have those last moments were important for all of us. Trooper Mitchell gave that time to us. We will always be grateful.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Hunter
