DUI Manslaughter Accusations.

There is not much on earth worse than being accused of DUI manslaughter.  When a car accident results in the death of loved ones the guilt of that fact is heavy enough.  Now, someone is held responsible for this tragic accident.  The individual may have a spotless record prior to this event, but this is not a slap-on-the-wrist event…it could be a life-changer.

In the state of Florida penalties for DUI manslaughter or vehicular homicide are severe.  Even first offenders may be facing 15 years of prison time!  If the accused left the crime scene now a conviction could mean 30 years in prison and a first degree felony conviction.  You also may be facing anywhere from a 3 year to a lifetime driver’s license suspension.
