Ex-Raiders player Henry Ruggs pleaded guilty Wednesday to driving his sports car drunk at speeds up to 156 mph on a city street before causing a fiery crash that killed a woman and her dog. “Guilty,” said the former first-round NFL draft pick.

Prosecutor Eric Bauman told the local judge who moved the case to state court last week that Clark County District Attorney Steve Wolfson endorsed the deal. Wolfson declined immediate comment following Ruggs' plea.

Ruggs' attorneys last week called the plea agreement a “first step toward a fair resolution to this matter” and"closure for all parties involved.” Police reported that air bag computer records showed Ruggs' 2020 Chevrolet Corvette slowed slightly from 156 mph to 127 mph seconds before slamming into Tintor's Toyota Rav 4. The speed limit in the area was 45 mph .
