A Bluefield man, whose blood
alcohol level was more than four times the legal limit when he crashed into
another vehicle, killing one person, has pleaded guilty to DUI causing death.
The crash happened August 2012 when
Eric Perdue crossed the center line on Route 123 near Brushfork and slammed
into a car driven by Sherri Watkins. She was killed on impact. Two passengers
in that car were injured.
Perdue’s blood alcohol level at the
time was .379. The legal limit is .08. He will be sentenced March 17.
