Greenfield woman gets 8 years in prison for fatal crash near Timmerman Airport
A Greenfield woman has been sentenced to eight years in prison after pleading guilty in a fatal drunken driving crash near Timmerman Airport in Milwaukee, according to online Milwaukee County court records. Alma Espino, 26, was sentenced Thursday by Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Jeffrey Wagner after she pleaded guilty to one count of homicide by intoxicated use of a vehicle. The second charge ― homicide by use of vehicle with prohibited alcohol concentration ― was dismissed. After Espino is released from prison, she will serve six years of extended supervision. She was also ordered to not use any firearms or body armor. Records show she has been in custody since July 13, and will receive credit for 253 days served. On the evening of July 11, Milwaukee police arrested Espino after causing a crash that killed Dimitri Boone, 57, of Milwaukee, who was found trapped beneath a vehicle at North Swan Road and West Hampton Avenue. Witnesses told police Espino was speeding and driving erratically before crashing into a fence and flipping her car. Espino seemed unaware that she had been a car crash and struck a pedestrian. Her blood alcohol concentration was 0.163%, more than twice the legal limit. Police noted they smelled intoxicants from Espino and found open containers of Crown Royal Peach Tea Whisky in her vehicle. Contact Adrienne Davis at amdavis@ Follow her on X at @AdriReportss.
