He pled guilty to the death of Yabin Tamang and on a count of dangerous driving on Tuesday (March 3), per Deadline.

He’s also been disqualified from driving for 17 years.

Police said that Ghetts had alcohol and drove at “excessive speed, executing dangerous maneuvers and causing separate damage in a collision with another vehicle,” per the Crown Prosecution Service.

He hit the 20-year-old Nepalese student at over 60 miles per hour on a residential road causing fatal injuries, then continued home, and was arrested the following day. The student died two days later.

“Justin Clarke-Samuel knew he was in no fit state to drive and there was clear evidence of his excessive speed and disregard for road users as he drove incredibly dangerously across our city,” Shani Taggart of the Crown Prosecution Service said in a statement, via Deadline.

“We built a comprehensive case against Clarke-Samuel, focusing on CCTV footage, toxicology, and analysis of his mobile data to pinpoint his route through London. After presenting this evidence, we secured guilty pleas to these two charges and today’s sentence will see Clarke-Samuel face the consequences of his fatal decision to get behind the wheel of a car after drinking. Our thoughts remain with Yubin Tamang’s family today as they grieve the loss of their only child, and with his loved ones who have to navigate a life without him.”

In addition, he will no longer appear in Season 2 of Supacell.
