DAYTON —
A Gainesville, Fla., man will be sentenced Oct. 17 after he pleaded no contest Thursday to charges accusing him of causing a high-speed crash last November that killed two people.
Robert Finkley, 30, will be sentenced in Montgomery County Common Pleas Court on two counts of aggravated vehicular homicide and one count of operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated, according to the county prosecutor’s office. He could receive 16 years in prison, according to the prosecutor’s office.
Corey Cooper, 18, of Dayton, and Christina Jackson, 20, of Riverside were killed in the Nov. 19 crash at Wayne and Wilmington avenues, police said. Jackson, who was driving, died at the scene. Cooper was ejected and died later at a hospital. Both died from blunt force trauma.
Jackson was a recent Carroll High School graduate. Cooper was a senior at Carroll.
A synopsis of a police report said Finkley was headed south on Wayne, drunk and at high speed, and hit the driver’s side door of Jackson’s car. The impact sent her car into the air. It landed on top of a three-foot high brick wall in front of 10 Wilmington Place.
