An Ocala man arrested several years ago on charges of DUI manslaughter, DUI property damage and DUI personal injury has accepted a plea deal negotiated by prosecutors and his lawyer.
Pursuant to that deal, Troy Eugene Allen Miller Jr. was sentenced on Friday to five years in prison followed by five years of probation. Circuit Judge Anthony Tatti was the presiding judge.
Handcuffed and shackled, Miller appeared in court and stood beside his lawyer, John Klein, at the podium. Miller, whose 26th birthday is Feb. 10, did not say anything before his sentencing.
Miller must abide by certain restrictions while on probation. He must complete a substance abuse program and attend a victim impact panel. He cannot consume any alcohol or illegal substances and is subject to random drug screening at his own expense. His driver’s license has been permanently revoked.
He also has to pay two separate restitution orders totaling close to $370,000.
Miller has 1,532 days of credit for time already served at the county jail. He has been locked up since 2019.
