A 22-year-old man was averaging 111 mph as he led an Orange police officer on a chase that killed three of his passengers three years ago, a prosecutor told jurors Monday, while the defendant’s attorney argued her client’s low IQ and traumatic childhood stunted his emotional growth and ability to make good decisions.
Azarie Dupree Fuller is charged with three counts of second-degree murder, two counts of child abuse and endangerment, two counts of reckless driving causing injury to a passenger, and a count of leading police on a chase causing death, all felonies. He is also charged with a misdemeanor count of driving without a driver’s license and an infraction for speeding more than 100 mph and faces sentencing enhancements for inflicting great bodily injury.
