A man with two DUI convictions had a blood/alcohol content of .143 at the time of the crash that killed 24-year-old Caitlin Vogel on Tuesday, May 31 near 191st and Nall, according to Johnson County prosecutors.

James McAllister has been charged in Johnson County with involuntary manslaughter. Prosecutors say he was drunk when he ran a stop sign and crashed into Vogel as she was driving east on 191st Street.

When ambulances arrived at the scene, a paramedic reported McAllister's eyes were bloodshot and watery. Police say McAllister agreed to allowing the paramedic to take a sample of his blood. When the results showed his blood alcohol content to be .143 grams of alcohol, he was arrested.

Police say McAllister agreed to speak to them after he was given his Miranda Warning. When they asked him about his driving record that revealed he was to have an interlock device on any vehicle he was driving due to a prior DUI, police say he told them he was driving a friend's car that did not have the device.

They say he told them he drank two beers before the crash, a 32-ounce bottle and a 16-ounce bottle. He reportedly told police he was driving around the county from 8:00 to 10:00 p.m., stopping at various unmanned construction sites to drink beer. The fatal crash happened at about 10:13 p.m.

When asked how sober he felt on a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being sober and 10 being extremely drunk, he rated himself a 2.

The document says McAllister told police he remembered coming over the hill, admitted speeding and recalled seeing a vehicle entering the roadway in front of his vehicle. He told them he didn't remember the exact actions he took before he crashed into the car, but remembered flipping over four times in his friend's car.

A review of McAllister's driving record shows he has two prior convictions; one from Mission, Kan., Sept. 9, 2010 and one from Prairie Village Kansas in Sept. 10, 2010.

Deputies pointed out in their report to prosecutors that McAllister never inquired about the well-being of the driver of the other vehicle, later identified as Caitlin Vogel.

Vogel worked in the Olathe School District as instructional support for children with autism.

"An exceptional person. One of a kind. Outgoing. Giving. Courageous. She would try new things without reason. Happy. Forgiving. She was just, as cliche as it sounds, one of a kind," said Kristin McDonald, one of Vogel's co-workers.
