Hall gets jail time, probation for role in fatal crash

Former BSU football safety Cam Hall was sentenced to 180 days in the Ada County Jail, five years probation and a $2,500 fine on Monday, for his part in a fatal high-speed crash outside of Eagle last spring.

Mark Lazinka, the other driver involved, was sentenced to three consecutive10-year prison sentences, but will be eligible for parole after 12 years.

The crash caused the death of Tony Perfect, Stephanie Perfect and their infant daughter, Zoe.

According to prosecutors, Hall and Lazinka were racing down Idaho 55, around 7:30 p.m. May 7, jockeying for position at speeds near 100 mph.

Tony Perfect attempted to make a left-hand turn on to I-55 from Beacon Light Road.

Hall, in front, narrowly missed the Perfect family but Lazinka, following close behind, hit the Perfect’s car at full speed, killing the family.

In addition to his sentence, Hall was ordered to write a 2,500-word essay explaining what he did wrong the day of the fatal crash.

If Hall successfully completes the terms of probation, his guilty plea to the felony charge of leaving the scene of an accident will be removed from his record.
