DUI Driver Sidney J. Flinn Sentenced to Five Years in Prison
A year after Sidney J. Flinn ran down his girlfriend, Brittany M. Shelton, while driving under the influence, he bags a five-year prison sentence. The Macon County District Circuit Court Judge, Thomas Griffith, pronounced the verdict on Wednesday, February 19th.
Flinn, 28, had stood trial for aggravated driving under the influence of alcohol. He pleaded guilty after his arraignment and took a plea deal that made the District Attorney drop the charges of reckless homicide, and aggravated DUI.

Flinn left the body on the road, and only put a call across to his father and a friend who called 911. After his arrest by the Decatur Police, a toxicology test showed his alcohol level at .091, and he also had traces of cannabis.
