OGDEN, N.Y. — An Ogden woman has been charged with second-degree murder, second-degree vehicular manslaughter and driving while intoxicated after a crash over the weekend that killed her husband.
Jennie Clark, 42, was arrested Tuesday. Ogden Police Chief Chris Mears says she was driving drunk and speeding recklessly with three children and her husband in the vehicle when the car struck a utility pole on Colby Street early Sunday morning.
Her husband, Matthew Clark, 43, was killed.
The three children, all under the age of 15, were not hurt.
Deputies say in the criminal complaint that an argument was going on in the vehicle. The car then went off the road and hit a pole.
Court paperwork says one of the children was recording footage on their phone around the time of the crash.
That video is being entered as evidence in the case against Clark. She's being held without bail and is due back in town court Thursday.
