FOLLY BEACH, S.C. (WCSC/Gray News) — New videos have been released of the woman who was sentenced for killing a newlywed bride in a DUI crash three years ago.

Jamie Komoroski slammed into the back of a golf cart the night of April 28, 2023, at 10 p.m. in South Carolina. Samantha Miller, the newlywed bride in the golf cart, was pronounced dead at the scene, and her husband, Aric Hutchinson, and two relatives were injured.

Investigators said Komoroski was driving 65 mph when she struck the golf cart. Hutchinson’s family members were taking the couple to their rental home hours after they got married when the crash occurred.

The newly released videos showed Komoroski repeatedly asking the officer who brought her into the room if she could call her father. She also repeatedly refused to take a breathalyzer test to check her blood alcohol level, according to the documents received from the Ninth Circuit Solicitor’s Office.

She was then taken to the Medical University of South Carolina for blood samples that were sent to the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division for testing, and they reported her blood alcohol level to be 0.261%, more than three times the legal limit.

After the crash, she told officers that she had one beer and one drink with tequila about an hour before the crash. She also responded that she was at “an eight” when asked how she felt on a scale of one to ten, with one being completely sober and ten being the most impaired, according to the affidavit.

Aric Hutchinson filed a wrongful death lawsuit against her two years ago, which alleged that Komoroski was drinking and bar hopping all day and that the places she visited did not act with the level of caution in serving alcoholic beverages. The lawsuit names Bottle Cap Holdings, LLC, El Gallo Bar and Grill, Snapper Jacks, The Crab Shack and The Drop-In Bar.

Taco Boy was dropped from the lawsuit after it argued Komoroski did not set foot in the business that day. The lawsuit alleged Komoroski, who was an employee there, was pressured to participate in a work function earlier in the night of the crash during which there was excessive drinking.

Komoroski has since been sentenced to 25 years in prison after she pleaded guilty to felony DUI, two counts of DUI causing great bodily injury or death and reckless homicide.
