Tyler Meaux sentenced to 48 years for death of teens
A little more than three years after being involved in a drunk driving crash that killed two North Vermilion High students, Tyler Meaux has been sentenced.
On Thursday, 15th Judicial District Court Judge Laurie Hulin sentenced Meaux, 23, to 48 years in prison, with all but 12 suspended. This comes after Meaux was charged with vehicular homicide for a drunk driving arrest on Feb. 4, 2018. The crash, which occurred on U.S. Hwy. 167, just north of Abbeville, claimed the lives of Sydney Colomb, 15, and Alana Duhon, 16.
