EVERETT — Camille Spink admitted Tuesday that she was drunk last winter when she drove the wrong way on Broadway and slammed into a car full of young people. The crash killed Sheena Blair, 24, and Martin "Tony" Ramirez, 19, both of Tacoma. Luis Reyna and Marco Ortiz, both 18, suffered serious injuries and multiple broken bones. A blood test hours after the Feb. 26 crash showed that Spink's blood-alcohol level was more than double the legal limit. An ashen Spink pleaded guilty Tuesday in Snohomish County Superior Court to two counts of vehicular homicide and two counts of vehicular assault. Under state sentencing guidelines, she faces up to 8 1/2 years in prison. Prosecutors have agreed to recommend the low-end sentence of just a little more than six years. That decision was made partly because Spink, 26, doesn't have any previous criminal history, Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Tobin Darrow said.
