THE FACTS SURROUNDING THE CASE
Four Killed In Sacramento drunk driving accident On March 26, 2007 Crash Occurred Along South Land Park Drive
POSTED: 4:48 pm PDT March 26, 2007
SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- Four people died in a vehicle wreck Monday afternoon in the South Land Park neighborhood of Sacramento, police said. Suspected drunk driving crash on March 26 killed sisters Brizhelle Rice-21 and Brittanya Rice-Nash-17, 19-month-old Kamall Osby-19mo and family friend Shanice Carter-18, police said.
Authorities said three adults and a small child were killed in the crash, which took place just after 4 p.m. along South Land Park Drive at Wymore Way. The four people who died were riding in an older two-door car. Police said the car collided with a red Jeep. The child riding in the car died after being taken to a local hospital. One adult was thrown from the car and killed. Two other adults died in the car, officials at the scene said. A fifth person riding in the car survived but was taken to a local hospital for treatment. The driver of the Jeep suffered minor injuries, officials said.
Police said Roberto Vellanoweth's blood alcohol content at the time of the wreck was 0.16 percent, which is double the legal limit of 0.08 percent.
Police said Vellanoweth was driving a Jeep that slammed head-on into a car on South Land Park Drive on Monday afternoon. Four of the five people in the car were killed, while the fifth person suffered serious injuries.
Roberto Vellanoweth, 63, is facing four counts of Gross Vehicular Manslaughter, two counts of driving under the influence and resisting arrest. Vellanoweth's bail was set at $250,000.
Roberto Vellanoweth, who was appointed by Gov. ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER last year to the state Board of Optometry and has been active in Republican politics, walked out of jail just after 6 a.m.
A biography provided by GOVERNOR'S ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER office states that Vellanoweth has served as president and chief operating officer of VEL-TEK Consulting, a business consulting firm.
He is the former chairman of the Republican Hispanic Assembly of Sacramento. From 1995 to 2001, Vellanoweth served on the Youthful Offender Parole Board. He worked for the Department of Economic Opportunity as assistant director of community relations from 1993 to 1995.
Prior to that, Vellanoweth served the Department of Parks and Recreation as the chief of human resources and the chief of economic and fiscal affairs.
The victim's family said they are convinced that because Vellanowth was a political appointee of Schwarzenegger that the Sacramento County District Attorney is giving him special treatment, perhaps even leniency, because Vellanoweth isn't facing a single charge of murder.
"They treat people different, and they continue to say the law is the same for everybody, but it's not," April Rice, the mother of Brizhelle and Brittanya Rice-Nash, said. "I feel he should get murder. He should be behind bars the rest of his life. It doesn't matter how old he is.
