Judge sets plea deal deadline for suspect in fatal wreck on I-25 near Santa Fe

SANTA FE, NM – According to KOB, a Judge set a plea deal deadline for a woman accused of causing a deadly wrong-way collision on I-25 NB near mile marker 285 on Mar. 2, 2022.

The deadline for a plea deal is Nov. 20. If the plea deal is not reached by then, the trial is set for Dec. 5.

Jeannine Jaramillo told officers a man kidnapped her. This led to a police pursuit, which ended in a wrong-way crash that killed Santa Fe police officer Robert Duran and retired Las Vegas firefighter Frank Lovato.

Police eventually determined Jaramillo was driving, and nobody else was in the car.

Authorities arrested Jaramillo three days after the crash and charged her with two counts of first-degree murder. She is also charged with great bodily harm by vehicle, aggravated fleeing police, stealing a vehicle, reckless driving, making false statements to police, and bringing contraband into jail.
