How they died

Vehic/Purs

Sutherland police chief David Johannsen was driving his pickup truck on a gravel road at about 3 a.m. when he said he was distracted by his passengers, Gary Tunink and Jodi Munn, who were having sex in the back seat. Johannsen lost control of the truck, which crashed into the ditch and rolled several times, ejecting Tunink and Munn. Munn was killed. Tunink was paralyzed. Johannsen called for help and threw his SPD turtleneck in a culvert, returning for it after crews had left the crash site. Johannsen remained chief until 2009, when he surrendered his police officer certification as part of a plea agreement for stealing and selling hogs from his other employer.
