The San Gabriel man accused of driving drunk and killing Angels pitcher Nick Adenhart and two of his friends has pleaded not guilty to murder and DUI charges.
Andrew Thomas Gallo, 22, pleaded not guilty in Orange County Superior Court to three counts of murder, drunk driving and fleeing the scene of an accident. Police said Gallo’s blood alcohol content was three times the legal limit when he reportedly ran a red light and struck the car in which Adenhart was riding. He faces 55 years to life in prison if convicted on all charges.
Murder charges are becoming more and more common in California DUI cases involving death where the accused driver has one or more prior drunk driving convictions. Second-degree murder is an extremely serious charge that carries harsh consequences, so it’s critical to have an experienced California DUI lawyer at your side.
