Nick Adenhart's killer faces three counts of murder
The man who allegedly killed Nick Adenhart and two others in Fullteron has selected top Orange County California DUI lawyer Randall Longwith to represent him.
Law Practice Examiner: Nick Adenhart's alleged killer to be arraigned Monday: "Andrew Gallo, who is accused of three counts of vehicular murder, including Angel's rookie pitcher Nick Adenhart is scheduled to be arraigned Monday in Fullerton, California.
It has been estimated that Gallo's blood alcohol level was approximately three times the legal limit when he killed Adenhart and two others. Police reportedly found him a mile from the scene.
Mr. Gallo is represented by prominent Fullerton DUI Defense Lawyer Randall T. Longwith.
If convicted of all three counts, Gallo faces 55 years to life in prison.
Given the severity of this tragedy, Mr. Longwith will have his hands full dealing with both the legal issues and the court of public opinion.
Under California DUI law, there may be several aggravating factors in this case, including the deaths, the speed and Gallo's prior criminal history."
Gallo is expected to plead not guilty at his arraignment. I will continue to monitor the story as it unfolds.
