Intoxication Manslaughter Penalties
You will be charged with intoxication manslaughter if you run into someone else and kill them while drunkenly operating a vehicle.
Under § 49.08, a vehicle can be:
- A motor vehicle
- An aircraft
- A watercraft
- An amusement ride
Prosecutors rarely offer probation for this crime, but usually push the judges and jury for a prison sentence that can range from 2 to 20 years. If convicted of this crime, you may also be forced to pay a fine of up to $10,000. If probation is offered, 120 to 180 days in county jail will still be imposed. Community service ranges from 240-800 hours.
Challenging Your Charges
Remember, you are innocent until proven guilty. Just because you were involved in an accident does not mean that you caused it. The burden of proof lies on the prosecutor to prove that you committed the crime.
The Law Office of Steve O. Gonzalez is here to gather and present any evidence that can cast doubt on the prosecutor’s case against you. We have several tactics we can employ when crafting your personalized defense plan.

"I am forever grateful to them for how they handled my case."I am 67years old and never been in trouble with the law. I was going through some medical issues with my husband along with some living issues. I did something I knew better than doing. With so much on my mind, I didn't think of the consequences. Steve Gonzalez was recommended to me by a friend. I have never met someone that took the time to take care of me and my case and was able to plead my defense with a positive outcome. I am so relieved he was recommended to me, and I chose to accept him as my attorney. I highly recommend him and his wife KK. I am forever grateful to them for how they handled my case.- Lynn A.
