Domenick Chavez, 33, was sentenced to 15 years in prison after pleading guilty to manslaughter in a 2023 head-on crash in Texas that killed Laura Lynch, a founding member of the Dixie Chicks.
The accident occurred on December 22 near Cornudas when Chavez, driving over 100 mph with a suspended license due to prior DWI convictions, attempted to pass four vehicles on a two-lane highway and collided with Lynch’s truck.
She died instantly.
Investigators found no alcohol or drugs in Chavez’s system but confirmed reckless speeding.
Lynch, 65, was an El Paso native and co-founder of the band in 1989, known for her bass playing and contributions before leaving in the mid-1990s.
The El Paso District Attorney’s office emphasized accountability, and the case has spurred discussions on road safety and penalties for repeat offenders.
