Drunk Driver Sentenced to 40 Years | Texas News

from Texas News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

A 22-year-old man, Daniel Rascon-Sainz, received the maximum 40-year sentence in Parker County after pleading guilty to a deadly drunk-driving crash that killed a 71-year-old retired nurse, Cora Estep, and left her sister and niece critically injured. Driving 90 mph while intoxicated and high on cocaine, Rascon-Sainz’s reckless choices shattered lives — his sentence will run consecutively with assault charges, and he’ll be deported after serving time. Emergency responders saved the niece’s life despite massive blood loss, underscoring how one moment of impairment can trigger irreversible tragedy.
