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 ...

EVERETT -- Police on Wednesday were canvassing the View Ridge-Madison neighborhood in Everett after a man was found dead there the night before. A neighbor spotted the man on the ground outside a vacant house at 22 Madison St. He called 911 about 6:20 p.m. The man had obvious signs of trauma to his torso, police said. He looked to be in his late 20s or early 30s. The Everett Major Crimes Unit is investigating the death as a homicide, Lt. Robert Goetz said. Detectives declined to say more about how they believe the man may have died. There are no identified suspects or motives. Detectives received a search warrant around 11:45 p.m. Tuesday and collected evidence at the scene. They returned Wednesday afternoon to look for clues in the daylight, Goetz said. The victim's identity had not been determined as of late Wednesday afternoon. The body was turned over to the Snohomish County Medical Examiner's Office.

Manslaughter charges possible in boy's death

Published: Thursday, August 23, 2012, 5:55 p.m. MONROE -- Detectives believe a 7-year-old Monroe boy's parents should face second-degree manslaughter charges in connection with his January overdose death. Monroe police this week wrapped up their probe into the boy's Jan. 30 death and forwarded the case to prosecutors to decide if his parents should face criminal charges. Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Lisa Paul likely will begin reviewing the case in the coming days. She doesn't expect to make a charging decision in the near future, however. "It's quite an extensive investigation, and I want to review it thoroughly before I make any decision," she said. The boy, identified as "A.J." in court papers, ingested a lethal amount of salicylates, a chemical common in aspirin and other over-the-counter drugs. The medical examiner declined to conduct an autopsy on the boy, making it difficult to determine how the drug ended up in the boy's system. A
