Jared Ray Hale, 25, faces three felony counts of vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated, with sentencing enhancement allegations for having a blood alcohol level of more than 0.15% and causing great bodily injury.
In the early morning hours of Feb. 14, prosecutors say, Hale drove away from a Dana Point bar with three friends in his Dodge Stratus. According to officials, the car was traveling at high speeds on Golden Lantern Drive near Terra Vista in Dana Point about 2 a.m., when Hale lost control of the car, which climbed the center median and wrapped itself around a tree.
Two Marines, 23-year-old Jeremiah Callahan of Nebraska and 21-year-old Christopher Arzola of Massachusetts, were pronounced dead at the scene.
Firefighters cut through the wreckage to rescue a third victim, Jason Chleborad of South Dakota, who later died at the hospital.  …MORE
