A state district judge is set to hear arguments Monday over whether key cellphone evidence should be excluded in the intoxication manslaughter case against Blake David Wampler.
Judge Kirsten B. Cohoon of the 451st state District Court could decide that day, officials said.
Wampler, son of former Kerrville Mayor David Wampler, was charged in 2024 after his Chevrolet Silverado pickup was involved in a head-on collision with Kimberly Fawn Brasher’s Toyota Prius a little after 10 p.m. in the 2600 block of FM 473 in Kendalia.
Brasher, 27, an Arkansas native and mother of two, died at the scene.
According to friends and family, she worked as a yoga instructor and motocross racer. She spent several years as a nanny in California and taught in Dallas and Austin public schools.
She also led a preschool called Edge of the Woods.
The Amarillo native eventually settled in Fayetteville, Arkansas, “a community she loved dearly,” said close friend Amelia Cox.
Department of Public Safety troopers at the crash scene suspected a 27-year-old driver of being intoxicated and found a handgun in his possession, which constituted an additional charge of unlawful carrying of a weapon, according to court records.
