Pine Bluffs Man Gets 4-6 Years For Fatal DUI Crash

A judge has sentenced a Pine Bluffs man to four to six years in prison for a crash that killed a woman in Cheyenne last year.Prosecutors say 19-year-old Kerry Lamb had a blood-alcohol level of 0.12 percent and was driving on the wrong side of the road at the time of the crash. The legal limit for driving is 0.08. Lamb's car collided with a pickup truck. The crash killed 25-year-old Heather Morrow.

The Wyoming Tribune Eagle reports District Judge Peter Arnold sentenced Lamb on Wednesday. Arnold recommended placement at the minimum-security Wyoming Honor Farm.

Lamb apologized to Morrow's family in a statement read by his attorney. Lamb pleaded guilty in September to aggravated vehicular homicide, a charge that carries a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison.
