(AP) — A Salina woman who admitted she was drinking and smoking marijuana before a car wreck that killed her friend will serve three months in jail.

Tara Pfeifer, 18, was ordered Monday to report to Saline County jail immediately following her high school graduation on May 12. She will serve one year of probation after the three-month jail sentence.

Pfeifer pleaded guilty in February to misdemeanor charges of vehicular homicide and driving under the influence in the May 2011 wreck in Salina that killed 15-year-old Journi Maas of Hutchinson.
