Bodycam footage shows the shocking moments surrounding a deadly DUI crash that left two people dead in 2022. New Mexico man Nicholas Esteban Gurrola crashed head-on with an SUV carrying four passengers after sideswiping another vehicle. Gurrola attempted to escape the scene but was detained by witnesses until police arrived. Gurrola, who was under the influence of alcohol, pretended he was just smoking a cigarette and had nothing to do with the deadly crash. Las Cruces police took Gurrola into custody as they dealt with the tragic crime scene. Gurrola became cocky and aggressive at the hospital as officers questioned him. He appeared to show no remorse for his actions. Law&Crime’s Elizabeth Millner breaks down the deadly incident.

He looks like Darrell Brooks!!! What a scumbag!! Why is it the drunk's always survive??
HARRIS / WALZ VOTER
Three days before Christmas…
Omfg 15 years are they for real 19 years with 4 suspended how some of these judges & prosecutors sleep at night i really dont know wow so many lives fu£ked up over him & he gets 15 its a joke
I reached a point where I realized my seizures no longer making me driving a car safe for those around me. I'm worried I might have one and get in a crash and hurt someone. I have stopped driving because of it. I don't want to hurt others. Drunk drivers disgust me.
I firmly believe alcohol should be illegal.
How in the world is it that drunk always survives??
Little punk. Call yer mommy. I hope prison is not kind to him.
That’s it ????
Imagine being killed by a drunk man wearing a homer Simpson jumper. A very rude and childish man. And him only getting 10 years for your murder.
American Law Enforcement Officer's are very gentle and professional.
the drunk people Always seem to stumble away.
He didn’t even get 20 years. NEARLY MEAN LIKE 17
Accidents happen. Tires blow, or you hit something in the road and lose control and go in the other lane. DRUNK DRIVING IS TOTALLY PREVENTABLE. This guy should have gotten life in prison!
And how did he get 19 years, with 4 years suspended, for a total of 15 years behind bars?? This is absolutely absurd.
What a fairy this fool is.
Justice system in Australia is even worse. It’s an absolute joke. We would applaud 20 years. Here he would likely get a lousy 7 or 8 years – utterly disgusting. Rob a bank and get more. Kill somebody and get bugger all. It is so pathetic. Our prisons are bloody holiday resorts and filled to capacity. We need actual “Prisons” and the do-gooders need to be thinking more about the victims instead of the criminals human rights. It is so wrong and we the taxpayers are footing the bill. Not long ago, a young guy killed a pregnant woman, her partner and their dog, just out for a walk. He won’t even get 10 years! I am sick to my stomach.
i;m glad canada changed the laws so if someone dies and u were drunk its an automatic life in prison sentence. we still need harsher laws but they have made them much stricter esp then other countries.
🙏🙏🙏😢🫂🫂🫂☹️✨✨✨🌷🌺🌹
Ah, little-man syndrome at its finest…
Dude, f@ck your cigarette you dont even deserve air.
Trouble is everyone is drunk question is who screws up and gets caught 😂😂😂😂
The thought that this pos was driving in this condition is just disgusting.
The audio is out of sync
My brother in law killed someone drinking and driving at 17 years old he is 65 now and my sister meet him a year after he got out and they have been married 16 years. I personally didn't know how to feel about his pass and my sister being with him. He is hard on himself and has a lot to live with. I personally dont know if I could live with accidentally killing someone. I personally cant wrap my head around the demons he is living with, but in the end no matter gow much I like my brother in law his demons are justified. I definitely tell my children look at what drinking did to your Uncle all he lost by spending all his youth in prison is nothing compared to emotional pain he living with. Call me are your dad to come get you are get a cab we make sure they always have money for one.
It's always so weird how the guilty want's to play the victim
A stolen life is worth 10 years. Disgusting
A grown man wearing a cartoonish t-shirt is a huge red flag.
I suggest the prohibition of alcohol
This guy is one of the ways cops remain physically fit.
Homer Simpson, sweetie, I am so sorry.
Was he injured in the crash or so high he doesn’t have any idea what’s up? Weird his walking. And how despicable to drink or be so high you hop in a car and fly down the road without a care in the world killing people as you go…Is he wearing a shirt that says: “Best Dad Ever”?
I love this attitude these days that criminals feel they deserve better treatment than they gave their victims 🙄
Disgusting.
The nerve of the murderous lowlife thing to be mad at the cops!!!
If I were to choose a crime, it would be to drink and drive. The punishment seems to always be the lightest. Some states give you MANY (5+) DUIs before they consider prison. A 1st time DUI in Wisconsin is NOT a criminal offense.
Hopefully no one mean mugs or eyeballs him in prison😂
19 years with 4 suspended. So he only got 15 years. Justice was not served. I pray for the families who lost their loved ones.
how tf does the drunk driver always survive
These negligent losses of life via DUI should be life imprisonment
Only two decades? He should have gotten life in prison without parole, or death penalty
And he will be let out in less than a few years for MURDER.
We ask lots from jurors to understand crime scene techs, evidence, laws, admissions, legal experts, confessions, expert witnesses, access credibility, and to sort out the ugly circumstances. Thank you to those who've served.
