Austin, TX DUI Attorney News ArchiveDrunk driver to serve sentences from three convictions simultaneouslyNicholas Colunga will be spending 14 years in jail for hitting Kylie Doniak while driving intoxicated. Doniak was among the pedestrians whom Colunga hit when he ignored a red light. Aside from Doniak, two others were also injured in the incident for which Colunga was also convicted. The judge ordered for Colunga to serve the sentences of his two other convictions simultaneously. He also received more than $2,000 fine for all three convictions. Prosecutors had wanted Colunga to be handed the maximum penalties for all charges but Amber Vasquez Bode, Austin defense attorney representing Colunga, told jurors that a longer stay in prison would make offenders more dangerous once they go back into society. |
