Former Las Vegas Raiders player Henry Ruggs has agreed to plead guilty to drunk driving and causing a fatal accident that killed 23-year-old Tina Tintor in November 2021.
The NFL player, who was released from the team after the incident, was allegedly driving at speeds of up to 156 mph in a 45 mph zone at the time of the crash.
He was also found to have a blood-alcohol level of 0.16%, which is twice the legal limit in Nevada. As part of a plea deal, Ruggs is expected to receive a sentence of three to 10 years in state prison, including six months for a guilty plea to misdemeanor manslaughter. Ruggs will enter his plea on May 10, and his sentencing will follow on a later date.
