Wisconsin Driver Charged in Crash That Killed 2 Marquette Lacrosse Players

Prosecutors cite a 0.133 BAC alongside crash-recorder data as the case moves to a Sept. 18 hearing.

Overview

  • Amandria Brunner, 41, of West Allis, is charged with two counts of homicide by intoxicated use of a vehicle with a prior intoxicant-related conviction from 2003.
  • A judge set cash bond at $75,000 with conditions requiring sobriety and no driving, and she remains in the Milwaukee County Jail.
  • The complaint says she turned left into the intersection as her truck accelerated and never braked, with crash-recorder data showing a brief stop just before impact.
  • A blood sample drawn about two hours after the collision measured a 0.133 BAC, with additional drug testing pending; police reported an open beer can, signs of impairment, and a witness noting an alcohol odor.
  • Students Noah Snyder, 20, and Scott Michaud, 19, were pronounced dead at the scene from multiple blunt force injuries, and four teammates received treatment after the crash.
