Wrong Way Drunk Driver Pleads Guilty | Annapolis News

A 35-year-old man, Michael Coupet, pleaded guilty to driving drunk and head-on into a minivan on I-95, killing a couple returning home from vacation and critically injuring their two children. His blood alcohol level was more than double the legal limit. Facing a potential 20-year sentence, he’s expected to serve 12 years, plus five years probation and $17,000 restitution. The crash hit a grieving community already reeling from the unsolved murder of Nikitha Godishala earlier this year. Sentencing is set for November 5th — a moment officials hope brings closure to victims’ families and healing to the community.
