Jackson DUI suspect wants evidence thrown out in case
SUMMARY: Jada Kelly, accused of killing two people in a DUI crash in Jackson last year, is seeking to suppress evidence of her alleged intoxication. Her lawyer claims the breathalyzer test, which showed a blood alcohol level of 0.18 (legal limit is 0.08), is unreliable and that Kelly wasn't properly informed of her right to refuse the test. The fatal crash occurred around 3 A.M. on January 15, 2023, at the intersection of Interstate 55 North Frontage Road and Canton Mart Road, resulting in the deaths of 46-year-old Azer Higgins and 43-year-old Valerie Lynch.
