Escambia Man Charged With DUI Manslaughter For Death Of Young Woman

December 23, 2025

An Escambia County man has been charged with DUI manslaughter after a fatal crash that claimed the life of a young woman.

The Florida Highway Patrol said 33-year-old Alexander King was traveling southbound on Blue Angel Parkway just before 6 p.m. Sunday when his vehicle crossed the centerline and collided with two vehicles that were traveling northbound. A passenger in one of the vehicles was pronounced deceased; an update on the conditions of the drivers of the northbound vehicles was not provided.

Family members have identified the victim as 23-year-old Caitlin Breault. According to a GoFundMe created by family, she was a kindergarten teacher, a loving mother to a 13-month-old son, and just eight days away from her eight-month wedding anniversary.

The GoFundMe notes that money raised will go toward her funeral costs, along with medical bills for her mother and grandmother-in-law, who were also injured in the accident.

King is being held without bond on the DUI manslaughter charge.

    This drunk won’t soon forget the precious life he took. Makes me ill. God bless this family, Lord. Give them strength. Bless her son. He won’t forget, as well. :( So sad.

    If he doesnt get at least 15 years, the courts aren’t sending a lesson to DUI drivers
