A 100MPH drink-driver who killed his passenger in a crash on Christmas Day has been jailed for more than ten years.
Charlie Hilton, 25, was chased by police before his Mercedes hit a tree and burst into flames, killing Lillie Clack, 21.
Three other passengers were badly hurt.
Hilton was over the drink-drive limit and had overloaded the car with five passengers, the Old Bailey heard.
He reached 100mph in a 40mph zone before crashing in Carshalton, South London, early on December 25, 2021.
