Fifth drunken driving conviction leads to long prison term
Nicholas Kurch, 35, already jailed for four drunken driving arrests, received a 15 to 30 year sentence for vehicular homicide after killing Sujan Tuladkar and Dr. Alok Chalise of Kathmandu Nepal. He drove without a valid license on December 7, 1996, fled a bar, and lost control of a girlfriend’s van, crossing a divider and crashing. Prosecutor Dan Cuddy said there was no other option but to lock him up. Judge Robert Colville called the decision nearly the maximum under law and noted a lack of redeeming values in the file.
