Ashley Dean had been drinking in the Castle Gardens pub when he lost control of his van and killed his friend
A drink and drug fuelled driver killed a beloved mum-of-two after enjoying pints with her in a pub before getting behind the wheel.
Peter Barr, prosecuting, told Preston Crown Court that on March 23, Dean had parked in the carpark of the Castle Gardens pub shortly after 4pm. He had arranged to get a lift home from his wife, he said. At 10.15pm, Dean left the pub and got in his van with Lisa in the passenger seat. As he drove down Blackpool Road, at between 45mph to 50mph in a 30mph zone, he lost control of the van on a sweeping left hand bend. The van spun 180 degrees and collided with a stone gatepost, resting on two wheels with the other wheels in the air. Lisa was thrown from the vehicle and into the road where she lay fatally injured.
“He stayed with Lisa. He checked her pulse and followed the direction of the emergency operator. He stayed with her and did everything he possibly could to help her. You did nothing to help her.”
