Nettrour gets 28 years for drugged driving death

Benjamin Nettrour

BULLHEAD CITY – A Camp Verde man will serve lengthy incarceration in a drugged driving traffic fatality. Mohave County Superior Court Judge Derek Carlisle ordered a 28.5-year prison term for Benjamin Nettrour, 37, during an April 26 sentencing hearing.

The Department of Public Safety said Nettrour was northbound on U.S. 93 when the pickup truck he was driving rear-ended a passenger vehicle, pushing it into the median where it rolled 23 miles north of Kingman  last June.

A passenger in the vehicle, Angelina Ortega, 52, Chloride, was dead at the scene. Two other passengers were hospitalized with injuries.

That Nettrour chose to take drugs and drive was key for Carlisle. “Being under the influence is what caused this accident,” the judge said.

Nettrour was convicted of manslaughter, two counts of aggravated assault and driving under the influence of drugs.
