Vegas Stripper Charged With Felony DUI After Fatal Crash

Shauna Miller, a Las Vegas Stripper, was charged with felony DUI after being involved in a deadly crash on March 23, 2013 in Las Vegas, Nevada. According to the police report, the incident took place at the intersection of Spring Mountain and Wynn Rd. around 7 in the morning. Miller was driving southbound on Spring Mountain when she struck the drivers side of a Ford Escort turning right at the Wynn intersection. The driver of the Escort, James Joseph White, was killed as a result of the collision while his 2 year-old son sitting in a car seat sustained minor injuries. According to officers at the scene, the Vegas stripper displayed several signs of intoxication such as constricted pupils, glassy eyes and a slight odor of alcohol.

When police asked Miller if she had been drinking before the accident, she told them that she had consumed 2 beers while working as a dancer at the Spearmint Rhino. The Vegas stripper told police that she drank her last beer around 3 or 4 am and that she had also taken a Xanax Pill the night before, which she did not have a prescription for. Police proceeded to give Miller a series of field sobriety tests, which she failed, resulting in her arrest for DUI. Police also noted that investigators believe White’s Escort was headed southbound as opposed to turning right as Miller recalls it. Investigators also saw no signs of pre-impact braking from the Miller’s Hummer, even though the Vegas stripper claimed that she tried to brake and avoid a collision. According to the police report, investigators are still trying to determine who ran the red light during the accident.
