The woman charged with killing a Charlotte bride in a crash on her wedding night was scheduled for a trial Monday, but she pleaded guilty just before it was set to start.
A South Carolina woman who was charged with killing a bride on her wedding night in a DUI crash last April pleaded guilty as her trial was set to begin on Monday. Jury selection was set to begin in the trial of Jamie Komoroski, 27, who police said was more than three times the legal limit when she crashed into a golf cart carrying newlyweds Samantha Miller, 34, and her groom, Aric Hutchinson, 36, on their wedding night, killing Miller.
Do you know what it's like to vow to protect your wife, do nothing for her and then lose her hours later?' Hutchinson asked Komoroski. 'She told me she didn’t want the night to end, and I kissed her on the forehead, and then the next thing I remember is waking up in the hospital,' Hutchinson recalled.
Several of the businesses named in the lawsuit have settled with Hutchinson, which would net the parties involved $863,000 after fees, WCSC reported. Hutchinson's lawyer, Danny Dalton, said the amount was less than anticipated due to an ongoing estate dispute between Hutchinson and the slain bride's mother, who has challenged whether the pair were legally married.
