California Man Accused of Killing Woman While Driving Drunk Without a License Told Police He's 'Driven More Intoxicated' Before

A California man involved in an alleged drunk driving accident that left one woman dead reportedly admitted to police that he had "driven more intoxicated" than this before, investigators said.

Martin Alameda Sanchez, 25, had reportedly been driving without a license when he allegedly rear-ended a parked car in Bakersfield, according to court documents obtained by KGET. The driver of that car was killed and a passenger was injured, police said.

Following the Sept. 28 incident, Sanchez allegedly told police that he had drank a 12-pack of beer before getting behind the wheel, according to court documents. Sanchez's blood-alcohol content was reportedly 0.257 — more than three times the legal limit.

"Sanchez also stated he knows he was too impaired to drive on this date," an investigator wrote in the documents, obtained by KGET. "When asked if this is too dangerous, he replied by saying he has driven more intoxicated in the past."

Police said that records stated the 25-year-old has never had a driver's license at any point, as reported by KGET. Last year, Sanchez was also previously arrested on suspicion of drunk driving in Oakland.

Sanchez was charged with second-degree murder, gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated, DUI causing injury and driving without a license or insurance. He pleaded not guilty to all charges.
