A man who was driving drunk when he struck and killed a Yountville man in 2020 has been convicted of second-degree murder and gross vehicular manslaughter, according to the Napa County District Attorney's Office. Mauricio Ramirez Aguilar, 40, was driving a pickup truck southbound on state Highway 29 at a high rate of speed on Oct. 17, 2020 when he collided with a Nissan Pathfinder containing Constantine Tsavalas, 87, killing him.
He was found guilty by a jury after a 12-day trial. Aguilar has two prior DUI convictions, both of which involved collisions as well, according to prosecutors. One in 2019 involved first responders pulling him from his burning car after he was found unconscious behind the wheel after driving into a power pole in front of the California Highway Patrol office in Napa.
