Man Sentenced for Drunk Driving Crash Killing Four Siblings

Scott Farmer, 49, was sentenced to 37 years in prison for causing a wrong-way crash that killed four siblings in Waupaca County while driving under the influence. The accident occurred when Farmer drove west in the eastbound lane of U.S. Highway 10, resulting in a head-on collision with a vehicle carrying five siblings, three of whom died at the scene and one later at the hospital. Farmer's blood-alcohol level was found to be 17 times the legal limit, and an open bottle of vodka was discovered in his vehicle. He received nine years for each of the four deaths and an additional 18 months for his drunken driving conviction. The victims, Daniel (25), Fabian (23), Lilian (14), and Daniela (9) Gonzalez, were out for a family dinner when the tragedy occurred. Farmer expressed remorse during his sentencing, and if released, he will be under extended supervision for over 20 years.
