A district judge on Monday sentenced a woman who drove drunk and killed a man in a Las Vegas car accident.
According to court documents, judge Jennifer Togliatti sentenced 29 year-old Miranda Dalton to eight to 20 years in prison. Dalton pleaded guilty in June to driving under the influence of alcohol resulting in death.
Dalton was drunk behind the wheel of her Jeep Grand Cherokee April 9 when she struck a Buick Century driven by 28 year-old Paul Maidman on Cheyenne Avenue. Maidman was pronounced dead later that night at University Medical Center in Las Vegas. A prosecutor said Dalton’s blood alcohol content was more than two times the legal limit after the crash.
Dalton had a previous driving under the influence conviction from a 2001 case.
