    Charged with DUI leading to death after a collision last night. 

    I suppose he couldn’t afford a taxi?

    Scumbag.

        More like dumb-bag. Checked the Map, that's only a couple of miles from the Strip... Could have taken a limo home from the Luxor instead.  🙁

          The saddest irony of all this is a huge factor in this young man's life was a man who lost his life in a car accident (which doesn't seem to have been DUI related, but still)

          For the love of God, don't drive drunk people.

            Does anything good ever happen at 3:39am?

              Fuck the young man's life.  Hope he go's to jail for a long time.

                Link to story of Ruggs' childhood friend mentioned above.  You'd think given this he'd be hyper-sensitive to anything related to driving - alcohol status, tiredness after a workout, etc.

                He'll have a long time to think about it.

                    Lost a good friend to a drunk driver in 1980. Since that night I never drink and drive. Not even one glass of wine with dinner out. Wife and I have a deal: only one of us can order a drink when we go out and the other is the driver. Only exception is if friends take us out and one of them agrees to be the designated driver.

                      Ruggs had a loaded gun in the car and was going 156mph 

                      I hope there’s no pay off for leniency coming here, he needs to be severely punished

                          Under Nevada law, there's no chance for leniency.. Kill someone driving drunk, and it's a mandatory 2 years minimum- and up to 20 in the slammer. (Certainly aggravating circumstances here)  https://www.nfl.com/news/prosecutor-former-raiders-wr-henry-ruggs-iii-driving-over-150-mph-before-fatal-c   Oh, and he can kiss that Million dollar house he's living in bye-bye while he's in jail when the family of the woman he killed sues him for every cent he's got. And lose his driver's license for life. 

                          Sad & crazy stupid- when you get behind the wheel of a Corvette when you're smashed, and think you're driving in some Grand Prix race. BTW London- getting my handy conversion table out...  156mph = 220 feet per second... For you metric folks on the other side of the pond- that's almost 70 meters per second. OMG- and on a city street, not somewhere on I-15 out in the desert? He did slow down to a mere 127mph at impact. I don't wish anyone dead, but he probably would have been better off if he hadn't survived the crash.

                              Not only that- but I'll make an assumption he was out on the Strip earlier. If you're playing for the Raiders, take it to the bank any major Casinos' Concierge would have gotten you a Limo on their nickel in less than 10 minutes. 

                              It's been said in young people, but more so in some NFL football players- think that they're somehow immortal.

                                As Hoorta said, it's 2-20 years but based on these variables and blowing a .16% (so he was hammered) I hope it's on the way closer end to 20 years.

                                  Seeing that you are British, I can see how you would think this is unique.

                                      I hate stupid. And this is the quintessential of stupidness. If you drink, you don't drive. He had multiple chances not to do so (fuck he could have slept in a hotel) 

                                      I hope he doesn't receive a special treatment. He has fucked up his life and still that won't get back that woman's life.

                                        And Texas is now Super'merica. Before you even contemplate driving drunk, you can even have the loaded gun on your hip without any training or license. How's that for really stupid?
