“Leaving the road was reckless in relation to the condition of the weak faculties and the permitted speed was almost double,” concluded Judge Normand Boone’s reprimand of Stephanie Tanguay.

The 38-year-old woman was convicted of impaired driving and criminal negligence causing death for causing the death of her friend Jasmine Charette.

Stephanie Tanguay fought back tears as she heard the verdict this morning in a Joliet courtroom. His trial was held last spring.

An evening turns into a drama

On November 7, 2019, three friends celebrated 35 years together^e Stephanie Tanguay’s birthday at Houston Resto-Bar in Terrebonne. The evening was festive, friends danced and had fun, wine flowed freely.

At midnight, Michael Parsons left the company, being very careful to warn his friends “not to drive.”

Unable to drive, she called a chauffeur service to drive her home with her vehicle.

At 3:19 a.m., Stephanie Tanguay took the wheel and drove to a Tim Hortons twenty kilometers outside of Houston in her Honda Civic with her friend Jasmine Charette.

Their visit was captured on surveillance cameras in the restaurant’s parking lot. There we see the car driving with difficulty, M^me Tangue is irregular.

Twice as fast

Shortly after the two women received their order, their vehicle veered off the road on a curve and hit a culvert on the side of the road.

According to trial testimony, Stéphanie Tanguay then drove at 96 km/h. The speed limit in this sector is 50 kmph.

Jasmin died at Charrett Hospital Center, where she worked as a nurse. Stephanie Tanguay was seriously injured and was put into a coma.

According to a blood sample, the judge concluded that the driver’s blood alcohol level two hours after the accident was 116 mg/100 ml of blood. This is more than twice the permissible limit.
