Last week, the prosecutors applied additional charges of criminal vehicle surgery after identifying three other victims who were injured in the crash. An attempt in the case should begin on May 12th.

A criminal complaint claims that Bailey's blood alcohol content is 0.335 – more than four times the legal limit – when it was drove a BMW X5 through a metal fence and was plowed through the length of the packaged terrace. He only came after the beating of stones and a slope at the opposite end.

When the officials Bailey explained in the hospital that he was charged with murder of criminal vehicle, he replied: “My life is pretty much – not true, isn't it?”

Court files show that Bailey had five former DWI convicts.
