Man pleads guilty to DUI crash that killed a man who had stopped to reload pickup after item fell out. dupsao aurorapoliceil
Nicholas Roepke, 30, of the 0N200 block of Dooley, pleaded guilty Wednesday to one count of aggravated DUI causing death and one count of aggravated DUI causing great bodily harm for the March 7, 2022, crash on Eola Road in Aurora.
Willie Mosley, 73, of Maywood, had stopped because a refrigerator had fallen out of the pickup truck he was driving. As he and two other people were reloading it, Roepke crashed into them, pinning Mosley between the vehicle and the truck. One of the other men suffered minor injuries, but the other sustained critical injuries and continues to undergo rehabilitation, according to a news release from the DuPage County state's attorney's office.
Roepke had a blood alcohol content of .214 after the crash, more than twice the legal standard for driving under the influence, according to the news release."Just over one year ago, Willie Mosley's life came to a violent, abrupt end simply because Mr. Roepke, with a stunning disregard for not only his own personal safety but also the safety of innocent others, got behind the wheel after he had been drinking," Berlin said."Driving is a privilege, not a right.
