Former Las Vegas Raider Henry Ruggs III faces several charges in connection with a fatal car crash last week that killed a 23-year-old woman and her dog.
The Nov. 2nd crash killed Tina Tintor, 23, and her 3-year-old golden retriever, Max. Ruggs is charged with DUI causing death, DUI causing substantial bodily harm, two counts of reckless driving resulting in death or substantial bodily harm, and possession of a gun while under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
Police said Ruggs was driving 156 miles an hour right before the crash happened.
Wags Unfiltered is now alleging that Ruggs III and his girlfriend Rudy Washington were arguing before the crash. Not only that, the video showing the girlfriend apologizing was because she thinks she caused him to lose control of the car and hit Tintor.
“Ruggs and his girlfriend #KiaraKilgoWashington were seen in videos after the wreck sitting on the sidewalk, arguing and also consoling each other. Ruggs did not take a breathalyzer test, but was later taken to the hospital where his blood alcohol content was .161…. YES, you read that right, he was 2x over the legal limit.
On top of Ruggs losing his career, he’s also facing multiple felony charges that could have him behind bars for a good amount of time. He’s being charged with DUI, resulting in death, DUI resulting in substantial bodily hard, two counts of reckless driving, and possessing a gun under the influence which could have him doing up to 46 years in prison. He was given a $150,000 bail and the “highest level of electronic monitoring” when released.
But this is when the story goes from unfortunate, to just down right suspicious. So if you recall Ruggs was driving with the mother of his daughter, #KiaraKilgoWashington at the time of the crash. Videos show her apologizing to him while the car that they crashed into is in flames. Sources have said allegedly while Ruggs was cruising, going 3000x times over the speeding limit, Kiara starting hitting him.
Sources say that she was mad about a girl that he had been messing with, and i guess decided to take matters into her own hands (literally). In the midst of her trying to get answers, while beating this mans behind, #TinaTintor tried to get into Ruggs lane, he attempted to slow down but by then it was too late. So basically, KIARA has some explaining to do, because even though no one could ever imagine what this night would have lead to… SIS THIS COULDNT WAIT?”

“OK. OK, here,” she told Ruggs as she grabbed his face. “I’m sorry. I’m sorry.”
He responded, “F***!!! Stop yelling!!!”
The Raiders released Ruggs from the team shortly after the crash.
