The Passenger: Elio Carrion, 23

A friend of Carrion’s since high school, Escobedo was the driver of the Corvette that led San Bernardino Sheriff’s Deputies on a high speed chase through Montclair and Chino with Carrion as his passenger. He plead guilty to a felony charge of evading a peace officer with wanton disregard for safety and driving under the influence with a blood alcohol content of .08 percent or higher. He will testify at the trial and is serving a 6-month sentence for those charges, as well on an unrelated charge of carrying a loaded firearm in a public place.
