Charges filed in hit-and-run crash that killed Milwaukee grandmother
The family of Beverly Fair has waited nearly a half year for some semblance of justice. The 70-year-old grandmother was killed in a hit-and-run crash in Milwaukee in January. Donte Miller, 30, of Milwaukee, was charged June 6 with seven counts related to the crash that killed Fair, including second-degree reckless homicide and hit-and-run involving death. His bail was set at $150,000 June 6 and a competency exam was ordered. Miller had an active warrant for his arrest since June 2023 after repeatedly fleeing police, according to prosecutors. Miller has been in custody since March when he was arrested on separate charges. The district attorney's office said it was waiting on lab results related to the crash that killed Fair. According to a criminal complaint, on Jan. 4, Milwaukee police officers attempted to pull over Miller near North 35th and West Vine streets in his BMW after observing no front license plate on the vehicle. Miller began to increase his speed and disregard a stop sign so officers activated their lights and sirens and attempted to catch up, the complaint said. Due to a slight incline in the road, officers temporarily lost sight of the BMW. Once at the top of the incline, officers observed the BMW had crashed into a Dodge Durango at the intersection of North 34th and West Lloyd streets. According to the complaint, the driver's door to the BMW was open, but the other doors were closed, while inside the Durango was Fair, and her 21-year-old grandson, Jordan Fair. Jordan Fair, who was driving, suffered pain and bruising to his chest area, while Beverly Fair died from her injuries. The Minnesota plate on Miller's BMW did not match the vehicle, but the VIN number did register to Miller, who was being sought after fleeing police in October 2023, according to the complaint. Officers recovered Miller's cellphone in the BMW, and it was later determined by a lab that there is "very strong support" that Miller's DNA is inside the vehicle, the complaint said. Officers responded to Miller's apartment later that night, but he had left the premises by then. The crash occurred just 1.2 miles away from his home and it was later determined by surveillance video that Miller walk or ran to his apartment before being let into the building by someone, according to the complaint. Miller did not have a valid license at the time of the crash and the conditions of his bail from his open felony case were to not commit any new crimes or drive without a valid driver's license. Miller was initially arrested in December 2022 for fleeing police and released from custody six days later after posting $2,000 bail. He failed to appear for his preliminary hearing in June 2023 and an arrest warrant was issued. He was arrested again in March 2025 and has since been in custody. Miller faces decades behind bars. His attorney, Michael Cerniglia, said at the June 6 hearing that Miller refuses to talk to him and show up for court, so Cerniglia wants to raise concerns about his competency. The early January crash that killed Fair happened just days after the holiday season, which Fair always looked forward to as a chance to feed her family a big meal, her daughter Shyla Deacon previously told the Journal Sentinel. Deacon couldn't immediately be reached for comment on June 9. Fair left behind a husband, Charles, five children and 12 grandchildren. "She was my dad's queen. She was our queen," Deacon said. "She did everything in excellence. Everything from the way she dressed, to the way she did her makeup, to the food that she cooked, everything was done in excellence. She was the best of all of us."
