A man who took a 'cocktail of drugs' before killing three people in a crash has been jailed for more than a decade. Aurelijus Cielevicius, 39, appeared in court on Tuesday to be handed a ten-and-a-half year sentence for causing death by dangerous driving.
Cielevicius was driving a BMW eastbound along the A47 in the North Runcton, Norfolk, at around 7.40pm on January 15 this year when he was involved in the fatal collision. His car smashed head on into a Vauxhall Mokka being driven by Paul Carter, 41, with his wife Lisa Carter, 49, and her daughter, 25-year-old Jade Mace as passengers, who were travelling in the opposite direction.
The BMW was seen by witnesses travelling at speed and going through red traffic lights before the crash. Forensic collision investigators were able to determine that the speedometer hit 96mph.
