Overview
- Nevada Department of Corrections records show Ruggs is now at Northern Nevada Correctional Center in Carson City as of this week.
- The facility is a medium-custody prison with roughly 1,600 beds and it houses in‑patient medical and mental‑health units.
- Ruggs was previously at Casa Grande Transitional Housing in Las Vegas, and this marks at least his fourth move since sentencing.
- Officials have not provided a case-specific reason for the transfer, noting generally that lower-custody infractions can lead to reclassification depending on severity.
- Ruggs is serving a three-to-10-year term for the 2021 DUI crash that killed Tina Tintor, with earliest parole eligibility on Aug. 5, 2026 and a mandatory-review date now set for Oct. 18, 2027.
