Emily Hernandez, who was pardoned by Donald Trump after participating in the Capitol riots, has been sentenced to ten years for killing Victoria Wilson in a drunk-driving crash. Hernandez, 24, drove under the influence with a blood-alcohol content of .125, striking Wilson's car on Interstate 44, resulting in Wilson's death and injuries to her husband. This incident occurred following Hernandez's earlier pardon, highlighting the continued legal challenges she faces post-riot involvement. Hernandez's defense sought a lesser sentence, but the court imposed a decade-long term due to the severity of the crime.
"Hernandez, on Wednesday was sentenced to a decade in prison for getting into a car wreck while driving drunk on an interstate in Franklin county, Missouri, in 2022 and killing Victoria Wilson."
"Investigators later determined Hernandez had a blood-alcohol content of .125, over Missouri's legal limit of .08 for most motorists."
