Drunk Driver Gets 20 Years For Manslaughter

Warren Tyler was convicted of manslaughter Tuesday after killing a passenger in his van - his stolen van. Tyler, 47, crashed the van just after midnight January 7th in Boston killing his passenger, Johnny Williams Jr., on impact.

Tyler's BAC was .14, almost twice the legal limit of .08. He allegedly told responding Boston police officers, “Dude, I’m drunk.’’ Police also found vodka bottles among Tyler's possessions. 

“Nothing in this world right now could make me feel any better than him being here,” Williams’s younger brother Jerome told the court. “He was a strong guy. We always ran to him for help. He was always there for us.”

Tyler has been sentenced to 20 years in prison.
