Teen Arrested for DUI-manslaughter of 75-year-old Woman

 

18-year-old Dominic Rampi is being charged with vehicular manslaughter. Due to the toxicology test results, he is now facing DUI manslaughter. The toxicology tests show that when he hit the woman’s car, he was impaired. At the time of, the crash, he was under the influence of alcohol and marijuana. According to deputies, Rampi was driving a 2011 BMW 335I south on Belcher Road at a high rate of speed when he ran a red light at the intersection with Curlew Road. When he ran the red light he T-boned a Dodge charger at a high speed. Marion was taken to a local hospital, where she was announced dead.

No driver should ever be under the influence while driving. Driving under the influence of alcohol, marijuana, or any other drug can injure you and others around you. If you are ever under the influence of drugs or alcohol, call a friend to pick you up, or get a taxi or an Uber. If at the moment you weren’t able to do one of those options and happen to get a DUI, A-1 Driving School has great and informative DUI classes you can take.
