Information from WYSH Radio
An Anderson County grand jury has indicted a man already facing charges of vehicular homicide by intoxication on another charge of DUI.
Danny Bean, 56, is facing charges in a November 2012 wreck on Highway 61 that killed two women—Alberta Farrer and Patricia Smith—and earlier this month, was indicted on a DUI charge stemming from a single-vehicle accident last year.
On April 7, 2013, Bean crashed his car into a ditch and when emergency crews arrived, he told them that he had taken prescription medication earlier in the day to explain his very slow and slurred speech.
Bean will appear in court March 28 on the latest indictment and is scheduled to appear in court on April 3 for a status hearing on the vehicular homicide charges.
Bean has three previous DUI convictions on his record and remains free on bond.
