Stephen Geer pleaded guilty Monday to vehicular homicide while driving under the influence and vehicular assault for a drunk-driving crash last November that killed a Golden police officer and injured three other people, according to the First Judicial District Attorney’s Office.

Geer, 44, a former Colorado School of Mines professor, killed Officer Evan Dunn on Nov. 6 when he crashed into the back of a stopped car that Dunn was investigating as part of a separate crash on Colorado 58.

The crash also seriously injured Dunn’s partner, Bethany Grusing, and a father and daughter on the scene as part of the prior incident.

Geer is scheduled for sentencing Jan. 21.

The district attorney’s office, whose district includes Jefferson and Gilpin counties, dropped one other felony charge and two misdemeanor charges as part of the plea agreement.

But the agreement also stipulates that Geer serve between four and 18 years in the Department of Corrections — eliminating the possibility of parole if he had been convicted at trial, according to the district attorney’s office.

The agreement “reflects the parties’ acknowledgment that a prison sentence is the only appropriate outcome in this case,” according to the district attorney’s office.
