Plant City man charged with DUI homicide

A Plant City man is facing a DUI homicide charge after a head-on collision this month that killed another man, the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office said.

Miguel Angel Utrera-Espinosa, 203 Park Spring Circle, Apt. 7, who turned 21 on Thursday, was charged with DUI homicide, DUI with serious injury and DUI with property damage today. He previously had been charged with not having a Florida driver's license and had been in Hillsborough County Jail without bond, according to jail records.

On Feb. 4, Utrera-Espinoza was driving a Chevrolet Trailblazer north on West Lake Drive when he crossed the center line and hit a Chevrolet Camaro head-on, deputies said.

Ruben Rivera, a passenger in the Camaro, was taken to Tampa General Hospital, where he died from his injuries. The Camaro's driver, Nadia Null, was taken to Tampa General Hospital and was in stable condition. She had no valid driver's license and two outstanding warrants, and additional charges for her were pending toxicology results, deputies said.

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement determined that Utrera-Espinosa's blood alcohol content three hours after the crash was 0.079. The Hillsborough County Medical Examiner's Office analyzed the results and determined his blood-alcohol level at the time of the crash was well above 0.08, the legal limit under state law.

Dr. Conrad Murray: 'I gave Michael Jackson Drugs!' + Charged with Manslaughter

Rihannas-Rehab.de.vu http Rihannas-Rehab.de.vu Please visit my fansite about Rihanna ! RIP Michael Jackson READ THIS SAD STORY Dr. Murray to Cops: I Gave Jackson Propofol We've told you since July 15 police believe Dr. Conrad Murray administered Propofol to Michael Jackson -- the drug that killed him. There's a reason police believe it. Dr. Murray told them. Two days after Jackson's death, Dr. Murray told LAPD detectives he administered Propofol to the singer hours before he died ... this, according to multiple law enforcement sources. We're told Dr. Murray gave Jackson an IV drip of the powerful anesthesia. Police believe Dr. Murray simply wasn't paying attention when the singer's heart stopped beating. Authorities believe Dr. Murray may have actually fallen asleep during the time the drug was administered and may have awakened to find Jackson already dead from heart failure. An IV drip of Propofol allows a constant, steady infusion of the drug for a period of time determined by the person administering it. It is considered reckless in the medical community for a doctor to administer an IV drip of Propofol without the patient being monitored by an EKG, which sounds an alarm when the patient's pulse drops too low. No EKG was found in the house. Another device -- known as a pulse oximeter -- is used to determine the oxygen saturation in the patient's blood. If the patient's breathing slows to a dangerous level, an alarm alerts the treating physician. Again, no oximeter was ...

Charges dismissed in grisly Ypsilanti Township triple homicide

Image
For nearly six years, they were locked up facing a possible death sentence for a grisly 2001 triple homicide in Ypsilanti Township. On Friday, a federal judge dismissed the charges against Deondre Byrd and three other men after a federal prosecutor said new evidence came to light last Friday that prevented the government from taking the case to trial. It was the second time in three years that Byrd escaped murder charges. He has been imprisoned in recent years for both the triple homicide and the slaying of a 16-year-old girl in Ann Arbor, but he has been convicted on only a federal gun charge. "Obviously, I'm pretty upset that almost 11 years later, we still don't have any answers," said Christy Brown, 30, a close family friend of the victims of the triple homicide. She said she got a call from federal prosecutors Thursday saying the case was being dropped, but they wouldn't elaborate. "I was very surprised. I honestly thought they were making some...
