WWE Fame Sunny Killed A 75-Year-Old Driver In A Mercedes Clash, Sentenced For 25 Years Jail
A WWE legend who admitted to killing a pensioner in an automobile accident faces a maximum sentence of 25 years in jail.
Known by her real name Tammy Lynn Sytch, the former wrestler “Sunny” tragically collided with Julian Lasseter’s car in Florida’s rear last year.
Witnesses at the scene stated that Sunny was driving at a high rate of speed when she drove her Mercedes into the rear of Julian’s vehicle, which was stopped at a red light.

Additionally, witnesses claimed to have seen Julian’s car strike a third because of how strongly the first incident had struck them.
After being taken to the hospital, Julian tragically died not long after.
Sunny had a blood alcohol percentage of .280, which is three and a half times the legal limit of.08 stipulated by Florida law, according to toxicology testing conducted following the collision.

In addition, she had been operating a vehicle without a license.
The WWE celebrity has now entered a guilty plea to many charges, despite first denying any wrongdoing.
These charges include four counts of DUI causing injury, three counts of DUI causing property damage, DUI manslaughter, and causing death while operating a vehicle with a revoked license.
DUI manslaughter is a third-degree felony in Florida that carries a maximum prison sentence of 15 years as well as a minimum of four years in prison.

A New Jersey charge for driving the wrong way on a one-way street was among the at least six DUI charges that Sunny is said to have had prior to this event.
She has been arrested for driving while intoxicated six times before this 2019 charge.
After being taken into custody five times in a span of four weeks, the celebrity served 114 days in prison in 2012.
When her parole was terminated for failing to respond to a court case involving accusations of drunk driving, she even went on the run from the police for six months.

Sunny has, however, also been taken into custody on a number of other occasions in recent memory.
Reportedly, she was also “involved in a domestic dispute with a man that could have turned fatal” the previous year.
The accusation is that she threatened to kill the victim by raising a pair of scissors “in the air towards the victim.”
It is thought that throughout the upsetting event, Sunny was under the influence of drink or narcotics.
Two counts of illegal gun ownership and one count of making terrorist threats have also been brought against her.
When Sunny first began working for the WWE, she went by Tamara Murphy and provided commentary for “Live Event News” portions on syndicated WWE television shows.
After a while, she started hosting her own show and assumed the position of ring announcer, going by the name Sunny.

Sunny became one of the most well-known characters in WWE and is formally recognized as the first Diva in the history of the organization.
She was admitted to the WWE Hall of Fame in 2011.
She declared in October 2018 that she was going to retire and lead a quiet life. That was not as private as it turned out, though.

Her second project was modeling in her underwear for Missy Hyatt’s adult website, “Wrestling Vixxxens.”
She gives webcam sessions on Skype and has starred in one pornographic film, Sunny Side Up: In Through the Backdoor.
She also started posing in her underwear on OnlyFans more recently, though she has now suspended this after her most recent statement.
