A former Pima County sheriff's deputy was sentenced to five years probation and 30 days in jail Tuesday for criminal damage and extreme driving under the influence by Pima County Superior Court Judge Clark Munger.
The Tohono O'odham Police Department received a call from a passerby just before 4 a. m. Sept. 2, 2009, about a crash on Arizona 86 near Kitt Peak.
Police found a flipped over Pima County Sheriff's Department Ford Expedition, a drunken Deputy Daniel Williams and a dead dog belonging to Williams.
Williams was indicted on criminal charges after blood tests showed his blood alcohol level was 0.251, said Deputy Pima County Attorney Heather Lane.
The legal limit in Arizona is 0.08.
Williams was off-duty at the time of the crash and on his way to his girlfriend's house, Lane said.
Williams, who worked for the Sheriff's Department in the Ajo District, was fired within hours of the crash.
