Aric Hutchinson and Samantha Miller were beginning their journey as husband and wife when an unimaginable tragedy struck. What should have been the happiest day of their lives ended in heartbreak and loss.
Just hours after exchanging vows, the couple departed their wedding reception on Folly Beach, South Carolina, in a low-speed vehicle (LSV) adorned with sparklers. Operated by Aric’s relatives, Benjamin and Brogan Garrett, the street-legal cart was heading toward the couple’s accommodation, just two blocks away, when disaster struck.
A rented Toyota driven by 25-year-old Jamie Lee Komoroski collided with the back of the LSV at high speed. Data revealed Komoroski was driving 65 mph in a 25 mph zone and had barely attempted to brake before the crash, which occurred around 10 p.m.
Tragically, Samantha died at the scene from blunt force injuries, while Aric suffered severe injuries, including broken bones and a brain injury. He remains in critical condition. Benjamin Garrett was also hospitalized with serious injuries, while Brogan was treated and later released.
Komoroski, allegedly under the influence at the time of the crash, faces charges of reckless vehicular homicide and three counts of driving under the influence causing death. Each DUI charge carries a potential sentence of up to 25 years in prison. Authorities confirmed the LSV was properly equipped with lights and legal for nighttime driving.
Samantha’s mother, devastated by the loss, shared her grief: “She literally ran into my daughter going 65 miles an hour. Sammie and Aric were on the back of the golf cart, and she just whammed my child.”
Samantha’s sister, Mandi Jenkins, recalled the horrifying moment: “We were sitting on the balcony in our pajamas and heard the sirens. They kept going and going. When my sister didn’t respond to my texts, we drove to the scene, and what we saw was devastating.”
Komoroski refused to provide a breath sample at the police station. A warrant was issued for blood samples, and results are pending.
In the wake of the tragedy, Aric’s mother, Annette Hutchinson, created a GoFundMe campaign to cover medical expenses and funeral costs. She wrote: “Aric has had one of two reconstruction surgeries, numerous broken bones, and a brain injury. He has lost the love of his life.” The fundraiser has raised nearly $600,000 as of Wednesday, far surpassing its $100,000 goal.
Another campaign, started by Samantha’s sister Mandi, has raised $37,000 of its $10,000 goal to honor Samantha’s memory.
“Samantha was fearless, and that’s exactly how she lived her last day,” Mandi wrote. “She was so excited to start her life with Aric. You could feel the love on that beach.”
Our deepest condolences go out to Samantha’s family and friends. May she rest in peace.

“I love being a woman and take pride in it,” she said. “Growing up, in my mind, I had long hair and a voluptuous body shape.
Today, I am the woman of my dreams, and that’s such a great feeling. With over 100 surgeries and more than £1 million invested, it’s been a long journey, but I see it as an investment in my happiness and future.”
Alves also spoke about her latest procedure, her third breast augmentation. “I just had my third boob job in Brussels at BeClinic with Dr. Frank Plovier,” she shared.
He replaced my old 1500cc implants with 2220cc ones. The results are fantastic—I couldn’t be happier.”
Despite criticism and social media bullying, Alves remains steadfast in her commitment to embracing her identity.
“I understand that I don’t fit into traditional beauty standards, but this was my choice, and it makes me happy,” she explained. “People should respect that.”
She also addressed the challenges she faces from online trolls and critics. “We live in a free society where we can be who we want to be. While I do get negative comments and bullying, especially on Instagram, it doesn’t affect me. I am a glamorous, voluptuous woman, and I love being who I am!”
Jessica Alves continues to inspire conversations about self-expression and individuality, urging others to respect her journey and choices.
