Henry Ruggs has since been charged with DUI leading to death after he reportedly blew about 2x the legal limit.

Tina Tintor’s family released a statement on Friday.

“Family was everything to Tina, and she was the light of her parents’ life. Tina lived in Las Vegas since she was a baby,” the statement said. “She loved her 3-year-old Golden Retriever, Max, who passed alongside her Tuesday morning.”

Henry Ruggs has been going through court all week as players and coaches on the Raiders have sent out their condolences to Tina Tintor’s family.

This whole situation was completely avoidable. And now, Ruggs will face an extended jail sentence.

He was released by the Raiders earlier in the week.
