Man Arrested with Torso in Car
Knoxville man arrested after human torso found in car KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WATE) - A Knoxville man is charged with vehicular homicide after a severed torso was found in his car during a traffic stop early Sunday morning. Dorrae Johnson, 29, is also charged with evading arrest and driving while license revoked. Arrest paperwork shows around 3:30 a.m. Sunday, an officer stopped Johnson's vehicle on Papermill Drive for failing to maintain his lane on Interstate 40. As the officer walked toward the vehicle, the report says Johnson yelled out the window that he had to get to his family's home and he sped off. The officer pursued Johnson as he took the Sutherland Avenue exit. The officer noticed that Johnson hit a curb and blew out a tire while going the wrong way on the roadway. He then crossed the yellow fog line and hit a utility pole. The report says Johnson then got out of the vehicle and started running. The officer caught up with him and took him into custody. The officer noticed Johnson smelled of alcohol and, had bloodshot, watery eyes and was staggering. Johnson admitted he was "blitzed." When the officer went to turn off the ignition to the car, he spotted a severed torso in the passenger floorboard that was missing its lower half. The officer asked Johnson who was in the car with him, and said the passenger and he had switched seats. The officer found the rest of the victim's body at the scene of impact, including his wallet that revealed him to be Darryl Eugene Butler. Officers believe Butler was a pedestrian who was hit in the roadway and killed by Johnson.

Re: Man Arrested with Torso in Car
what state of mind are you in when you cut someone in half with your car, put the torso in and then drive off-destination unknown. More than alcohol methinks.

Re: Man Arrested with Torso in Car
Prosecutors are seeking to revoke the bond of a Knoxville man with a history of drunken driving who is suspected of severing a pedestrian's torso in a gruesome crash that occurred as he sped away from a highway patrolman over the weekend. Dorrae Johnson, 29, was convicted of driving under the influence in 2017 and was out of jail on bond from a second DUI arrest this year when authorities say he struck and killed 65-year-old Darryl Eugene Butler along Sutherland Avenue around 3:30 a.m. Sunday, according to Knox County court records. Johnson was arrested on charges including vehicular homicide, felony evading arrest and driving with a revoked license after police reported finding the upper half of Butler's torso inside Johnson's car. Now, Johnson is out of jail again. He made bond, which had been set at $76,000, shortly before 4 p.m. Tuesday, records show. The Knox County District Attorney General's Office is seeking to "revoke or substantially increase" Johnson's bond from his second DUI arrest, which occurred in January on Interstate 275. That case remains unresolved. "The State contends that the defendant's repeated refusal to obey the laws of this State make him a continuing threat to the community," prosecutors wrote in a motion. |
