Sadly, when Henry Ruggs III crashed his Corvette into Tina Tintor RAV4 at 156 MPH, many people witnessed it, and many more heard it.
They immediately contacted 911.
TMZ Sports has obtained multiple 911 calls made moments after Henry Ruggs allegedly caused a fatal car crash … with one witness telling an operator she believed a person was trapped in the burning truck.
A female caller who said she lives near the scene of the accident claimed she was in bed when she heard the crash, and when she looked at the crash site, all she saw were flames.
“It’s almost all gone,” she said of the fire-engulfed vehicle, continuing, “and I think someone is in it.”
Ruggs III is looking at 50 years in jail if convicted on all charges.
His attorneys are fighting to keep his medical records sealed.
Attorneys for former Raiders wide receiver Henry Ruggs III are fighting to keep his medical records away from prosecutors charging him with driving under the influence in a fiery car crash that killed a woman earlier this month.
Asked how much time Ruggs could be facing if convicted on all five charges, Wolfson replied, “The bare minimum, actually, would be two years in prison, up to as much as somewhere in the 50-[years] range. These are nonprobationable offenses. So the felony DUI charges, if Mr. Ruggs is convicted, he can’t get probation. He must get a prison sentence.”
Ruggs posted $150,000 bail last week and is under house arrest with strict conditions — he is being monitored electronically, cannot drive or consume alcohol, including being tested four times per day for alcohol; and had to give up his passport — as his criminal case proceeds.
Ruggs III’s lawyer is asking people not to pass judgment just yet. He says that when all the facts come out, people may see things differently.
Flip the pages for all the 911 calls.
