Overview
- Corrinne Adrianna Blue, 32, was ordered to house arrest after a judge on Friday set bond at $250,000 per vehicular‑homicide count and required passport surrender plus no travel or driving outside Palm Beach County.
- The charges follow a felony warrant issued Thursday, with Florida Highway Patrol troopers arresting Blue on three counts tied to the November 2024 deaths of Cpl. Luis Paez Jr., Deputy Ignacio “Dan” Diaz, and Deputy Ralph “Butch” Waller.
- An FHP affidavit cites witnesses, video, and airbag control module data showing Blue drove 74–86 mph in a 55 mph zone, tailgated, and made abrupt lane changes, with little braking until about 1.7 seconds before impact.
- Investigators say the deputies were standing beside their parked motorcycles on the eastbound shoulder of Southern Boulevard near Lion Country Safari when Blue’s Jeep veered off the roadway, killing Paez and Waller that day and Diaz on Nov. 25, 2024.
- Toxicology tests were negative for alcohol and drugs, while records show Blue had finished a 12‑hour overnight nursing shift, had been awake about 18 hours, and bought McDonald’s minutes before the crash, which experts said could worsen fatigue as the case now advances to trial.
