UFC Fighter Desmond Green Faces DUI Manslaughter Charge After Crash Kills Two Women

Ultimate Fighting Championship lightweight Desmond Green is facing 20 charges – including DUI manslaughter – for his involvement in a five-vehicle crash that killed two women last summer.

According to the South Florida Sun Sentinel, Green is currently being held in Broward County (Fla.) jail on bonds totaling $194,000.

On Aug. 18, Green lost control of his Dodge Durango while driving north on Sheridan Street on northbound Interstate 75 in Pembroke Pines, Fla, and veered into the path of a tractor-trailer. That triggered a five-car crash that killed two women, Emelina Morfa and Emma Suarez of Miami.
