12 years for DUI death

Posted

A Lexington woman will serve 12 years for a felony DUI involving death.

Last week, Lauren Michelle Dangerfield, 33, plead guilty to charges for the July 13, 2018 death of Brian Orazen, 45.

On July 13, 2018, Orazen was driving to work when Dangerfield travelled left of center on Nazareth Road in the Red Bank area of Lexington County.

Dangerfield collided with Orazen’s vehicle head on resulting in Orazen’s death.

A blood test determined that Dangerfield had the presence of methamphetamine, cocaine, and 3 benzodiazepines in her system.

During sentencing, Orazen’s widow, Stacy Orazen, said she has not had a “moment of peace” since Dangerfield’s reckless and selfish decision to get behind the wheel that morning.

Dangerfield will be transported to the South Carolina Department of Corrections for the immediate service of her sentence.
