Three Months for DUI Crash That Left Victim in Coma | Dover News

A man named Marcus Simpson just got sentenced to three months in federal prison for a deadly DUI crash—he was speeding over 100 mph and had a blood alcohol level of .09, causing another driver to suffer a brain bleed and spend a month in a coma. The prosecutor pushed for six months, citing his reckless behavior, while the defense pleaded for probation, highlighting Simpson’s sobriety, therapy, and the looming heart surgery for his 11-year-old son. The judge weighed all factors—including the victim’s ongoing trauma and Simpson’s personal struggles—and handed down a tough but measured sentence: three months behind bars, plus six months work release, probation, DUI treatment, and full restitution. It’s a sobering reminder that impaired driving has no winners. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
