The mother of a South Carolina bride killed in a wedding night crash lashed out at the driver whose blood alcohol level was allegedly more than three times the legal limit, saying “This was not an accident.”
Samantha Miller, 34, died and her groom Aric Hutchinson, 36, was seriously injured when Jamie Komoroski rear-ended their golf cart after they left their reception in Folly Beach.
Komoroski, 25, had a blood-alcohol level of .261% during the April 28 collision, according to an incident report released by police Thursday.
“It wasn’t an accident. This person chose to drink, get behind the wheel, and plow down my daughter,” Lisa Miller, an addiction specialist, told Fox News Digital. “This is a conscious choice that a young lady made.”
Miller said they are not having a funeral.
“We are having a celebration of Sam just like at that wedding. There are not going to be any people wearing black,” she said. “Because that’s what Sam would have wanted.”
