Ruggs did not appear, but attorneys David Chesnoff and Richard Schonfeld represented Ruggs before Justice of the Peace Suzan Baucum, AL.com reported.

The former Las Vegas Raiders and Alabama wide receiver was charged with:

  • Driving under the influence of alcohol and/or controlled or prohibited substance resulting in death.

  • Reckless driving resulting in death or substantial bodily harm.
  • Possession of a gun under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

Ruggs is facing a minimum of 2 years in prison, and up to 50 years in prison.

Law-enforcement authorities say Ruggs was driving a Corvette Stingray that was traveling at 156 mph 2.5 seconds before impact and 127 mph at the time of a collision with a Toyota Rav4 driven by Tintor. The LVMPD used data from the car’s airbag control module to find those speeds.
