Former county official sentenced for reckless homicide

A former Garrard County official learned Thursday how long he'll spend in jail for his role in a deadly crash.
Dwayne Nave, who was the Garrard County Emergency Management Director at the time he caused a crash in April of 2007. Test results showed he had alcohol and marijuana in his system at the time. He crashed into another vehicle on US 27. The driver of that car, 43-year old Willard Quinn, died from his injuries.
Nave was originally charged with murder in the case, but pleaded guilty to reckless homicide instead.
Thursday a Garrard County judge sentenced Nave to five years in prison for that charge.
