Mother: Man accused of causing fatal Livingston Co. crash had alcohol in blood

The driver accused of causing a fatal Livingston County crash has a suspended driver's license, according to state records.

Records for 22-year-old Matthew Jordan Carrier show a history of citations for careless driving, speeding, operating while impaired by liquor and driving on a suspended license. 

Albert Boswell, the other driver, also had an expired license. Boswell had his license expired in 2002 due to alcohol related incidents in the late 1990s, early 2000s. He was in the process of clearing that up, but he still needed to take a road skills test to get a license. So, he was expired at the time of the crash.

 

On May 10, five people were killed when police say Carrier blew through a stop sign and struck a vehicle traveling eastbound on M-59. 

Michigan State Police have released the names of all of the people involved in the deadly two-car crash. 

Candice Dunn, named Oakland County probation agent of the year, was killed in the crash. She was a passenger in the eastbound car traveling on M-59. The driver has been identified as 39-year-old Albert Boswell of Oakland County.

Boswell is in critical condition.

Also riding in that car was 69-year-old Linda Hurley of Macomb County and 73-year-old Jerome Tortomasi of Macomb County. They were both killed in the crash.

The southbound car was driven by Carrier. He remains in critical condition. 

Also in critical condition is 23-year-old passenger Kyle Lixie, who was ejected from the car and taken to the hospital in critical condition.

Two other passengers, 20-year-old Justin Henderson of Fenton and 24-year-old Preston Wetzel, were killed in the crash.

All of the injured are being treated at the University of Michigan Hospital in Ann Arbor.
