E-Scooter Drunk Driver Pleads Guilty
Description
A twenty-five-year-old English backpacker, Alicia Kemp, has pleaded guilty to causing death by dangerous driving after crashing an e-scooter while intoxicated in Perth, fatally injuring Thanh Phan, a devoted father of two. The prosecution dropped a bodily harm charge, and Kemp’s lawyer says she’s remorseful and eager to resolve the case quickly, noting her status as a young foreign national in custody. Her family in the UK worries for her, while she’s supported locally by her boyfriend. Kemp suffered minor injuries, and her passenger was hospitalized with non-life-threatening wounds. Facing up to 20 years in prison, Kemp remains jailed and is set for sentencing on October 31st — with her legal team hoping the process wraps up by Christmas.
