LOCAL ‘JUDIES’ ROCKER TO SERVE 20-YEARS FOR

DRUG-RELATED DEATH

Defendant Pumped Drugs into Woman Suffering From Heroin Overdose

Atlanta- Fulton County District Attorney Paul L. Howard, Jr. announces the conviction by guilty plea of Warren Eugene Ullom, lead singer of the Atlanta Rock Group ‘The Judies’. 24-year old Ullom pled guilty Monday to the charge of Voluntary Manslaughter and was immediately sentenced by Fulton County Superior Court Judge Doris Downs to twenty years in prison for his role in a drug-overdose death.

The case involved the death of Rachel San Inocencio, a 32-year old female who had met the defendant only a few days before her death. On June 6, 2008, she went to the defendant’s apartment where the two engaged in heroin use. The victim suddenly became critically ill from the drugs, but Ullom refused to seek medical attention on her behalf. He instead called a friend to bring some cocaine over, and as the victim lay unconscious for hours, he injected her twice with cocaine in an attempt to revive her from the heroin overdose.

The friend who brought the cocaine over eventually left and called 911 to summon help for the woman since Defendant Ullom refused to do so. However, the friend gave an incorrect address and the ambulance was unable to locate her. Warren Ullom then sent a text to his friend stating, “She is better. No Ambulance”. The victim died approximately thirty minutes after Ullom’s text- prompting him to finally call 911 for an ambulance. He then placed the remaining cocaine baggies in the victim’s purse, and asked the police to remove her purse from his apartment. The investigation later revealed that Ullom also stole the victim’s diamond earrings and pawned them just three days after her death.

The case was prosecuted by Deputy District Attorney Leigh DuPre and Chief Senior Assistant District Attorney Lance Cross. The case was investigated by Detective Jeff Gunter of the Atlanta Police Department, who is now with the D.E.A., and Agent John Rapp of the D.E.A.
