Drunk Driver Gets 8 Years for Fatal Crash
Description
Mark Briggs, a Lethbridge man, received an eight-year prison sentence for drunk driving that resulted in a fatal crash, killing thirteen-year-old Alessia Loria and injuring four others, including his own son. Briggs was found to be three to four times over the legal blood alcohol limit and drove the wrong way on a divided highway, causing a head-on collision. The Loria family suffered severe injuries, and Alessias mother, sisters, and brother were left grieving her loss. Briggs pleaded guilty to impaired driving causing death and four counts of bodily harm. Despite his remorse, the judge emphasized his addiction-fueled recklessness and the lasting impact on the victims lives.
