Cop killed in DUI crash; Fellow Officer Charged
Danielle Baymack, 22, was charged with vehicular manslaughter and driving while intoxicated after the 2000 Mitsubishi sedan slammed into a signpost at 4:30 AM, killing fellow officer Marlene Rivera, 24, of Brooklyn. Baymack pleaded not guilty from her hospital bed last Saturday afternoon.
Baymack and Rivera, both rookie officers at the 103rd Precinct, were driving home after a night partying at a nightclub. The Nassau County police on the scene smelled alcohol on Baymack’s breath, and a breathalyzer allegedly confirms a BAC at .11 - above the legal limit of .08.
