Washoe County Sheriff’s Office detectives today charged Alexandrew Vail, 26, of Kings Beach with open murder in the homicide of 27-year-old Emily Giudici of Sparks.
Vail has been in the Washoe County Sheriff’s Office Detention Facility since September 15, 2020 booked on Driving Under the Influence and Driving Without a Driver’s License in relation to a single vehicle crash on Mount Rose Highway earlier that day.
An off-duty deputy came upon the crash shortly after 2:00 a.m. while driving home from work. When the deputy arrived on scene, he immediately began performing lifesaving measures on Giudici, who was initially found outside the vehicle.
The subsequent death investigation completely closed Mount Rose Highway until 8:00 a.m.
