Press Release

(Woodland, CA) – February 7, 2018- District Attorney Jeff Reisig announced today that on February 2, 2018, a Yolo County jury found 25-year-old West Sacramento woman Larra Williams guilty of driving under the influence of alcohol, driving under the influence of methamphetamine, driving under the combined influence of both alcohol and methamphetamine, and being under the influence of methamphetamine.

On July 27, 2016, around 10:00 am, officers with the West Sacramento Police Department conducted an investigation for driving under the influence after Ms. Williams was seen weaving and showing other signs of being under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Ms. Williams had an open container of alcohol in the car and initially denied drinking of alcohol and taking methamphetamine. Later, Ms. Williams admitted to taking both. She participated in two separate sets of field sobriety tests and performed poorly on both. Ms. Williams’ blood had an alcohol concentration of .05% and a meth amphetamine concentration of 190 nanograms per milliliter. Among her signs of impairment included: eyelid tremors, rapid speech, elevated blood pressure, and pulse.

District Attorney Jeff Reisig commented “With the continued funding of the OTS grant, we can specialize in keeping the community safe by allocating resources to prosecuting both alcohol and drug DUIs.”

The Honorable David Rosenberg, who presided over the trial, will sentence Ms. Williams on February 22, 2018 in Department 14.
