A woman who killed a man by driving the wrong way on a New York interstate has pleaded guilty to vehicular homicide, drunken driving and other charges.
Tanisha Gomez of Queens admitted Tuesday that she was drunk when she drove more than six miles north in the southbound lanes of I-95 on July 24.
Police said her minivan hit a car carrying two men in New Rochelle. The crash killed 29-year-old Reginald Lee of East Orange, N.J. The other man and Gomez were seriously injured.
Westchester County Judge Barbara Zambelli said she would sentence the 26-year-old Gomez to three to nine years in prison.
Had Gomez gone to trial and been convicted, she could have faced up to 25 years.
