Henry Ruggs III was driving his Corvette 156 miles per hour seconds before allegedly causing a fiery car crash Tuesday that left a 23-year-old woman dead, Clark County Chief Deputy District Attorney Eric Bauman said in court Wednesday, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal.
Ruggs, the former Raiders receiver who was cut by the team Tuesday night and is facing felony DUI charges, also had a blood alcohol content of .161, Bauman said, according to the Las Vegas Sun. That is more than twice the state’s legal limit of .08.
Bauman said the speed of Ruggs’ vehicle was 127 mph when the airbags were deployed, and that a dog was killed in the crash.

I guess there will not be any Henry Ruggs IV
White man was keeping him down.
Those new Corvettes are definitely fast.
I hope he enjoys prison. Maybe he and Alex Baldwin can share a cell?
Suicide?
Probably spent every dollar he made as a pro football player, and saw no future.
Is that the most serious charge? Someone died.
So sorry, I misread it. I thought Ruggs died.
1st degree Manslaughter.
HE is going to be spending some time in the Nevada House of Corrections.
Don't count on it. Didn't Assange have two kids while he was 'isolating' at the embassy?
A DUI death conviction in Nevada has a sentence of 2-20 years. A reckless driving conviction has a sentence of 1-6 years. 26 years is not enough to make up for the death of the 23 year-old woman, but it had better be that and not some reduced 2-3 year sentence.
LAS VEGAS (FOX5) -- The Nevada Supreme Court ruled fatal DUI drivers will no longer face second degree murder charges.
The most severe charge that can be brought against deadly DUI drivers is felony DUI causing death, which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison.
Those facing second-degree murder charges would serve at least 10 years before being eligible for parole.
“We can still charge felony DUI death which is two to 20 years in prison, and the person, if convicted, will go to prison but not for as long as if they were convicted of second degree murder,” said Clark County District Attorney Steve Wolfson.
Obviously, he was a runaway slave from the NFL’s plantation.
That probably is the only “current” charge. Enough to hold him on.
Other charges will follow after the investigation.
It won’t be settled until the judge delivers his sentence.
Depending on how much money there is for bribery, he could get off with probation.
According to Kaepernick, that means he is finally free from the bondage of the NFL! Free at last!
If someone purposefully stalks and murders someone else and is caught, by law they get the highest level of punishment. If someone gets drunk and runs someone over they gat a far lower sentence. Yet who is more likely to reoffend? The guy who murdered the man who sold his daughter into slavery? Or some drunken NFLer?
I’d say Ruggs is far more dangerous to society than the father.
DUI drivers should be shot on sight.
Let them bleed out and their friends, if they have any can retrieve the body.
Could be many years in jail.
Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC)
*I guess there will not be any Henry Ruggs IV*
That means there must be a Henry Ruggs 1 + a Henry Ruggs ll. That means he should know who his daddy is. Isn’t that structure designed to keep things like that from happening?
