U.S.Associated PressVegas judge mulls evidence question in Ruggs fatal DUI case
A Las Vegas judge said Wednesday he'll decide by the end of the day whether to limit medical information that prosecutors receive about former Raiders receiver Henry Ruggs III following a fiery crash that killed a woman. Ruggs didn't have to appear in court while his attorney, Richard Schonfeld, argued before Justice of the Peace Pro Tem Robert Walsh that although state law lets police and prosecutors obtain a report about his client's blood-alcohol level following the early Nov. 2 crash, it doesn't let a judge compel first-responders to testify about his physical condition. Ruggs is due next week for a preliminary hearing of evidence alleging he was driving 156 mph (251 kph) with a blood-alcohol level of 0.16% — twice the legal limit in Nevada — before his Chevrolet Corvette slammed into the rear of Tina Tintor's vehicle, which caught fire.
