Xinos was sentenced to seven years in prison for drunk driving, vehicularmanslaughter, and fleeing the scene of an accident after a hit-and-run in 2006 that killed a 15-year-old boy.
Though, in one recent case, a court threw out the black box evidence used against a California man to convict him of vehicularmanslaughter because the police pulled the data from the black box of his SUV without getting a warrant first.
