Andrew Joseph Camilleri. was mentioned in the San Francisco Chronicle on 26 December 2017: Crash kills CHP officer in Hayward -- Driver arrested, suspected of DUI -- By Bob Egelko
A California Highway Patrol officer, just hours from getting off duty and going home to open Chrisimas presents with his wife and three young children, was killed when an impaired driver swerved off the road and slammed into his patrol vehicle, which was parked near an on-ramp to Interstate I880 in Hayward, the CHP said Monday.
AndrewCamilleri Sr..33, of Tracy, a CHP officer for a year and a half, was killed in the crash at ii:20 p.m. on Christmas Eve, CHP officials said. His partner. Officer Jonathan Velasquez,was treated at a hospital for lacerations and was released Monday, said Sgt. Rob Nacke, a CHP spokesman.
"Today is not a holiday for the Highway Patrol. Today is about a tragic loss of one of our own, one by the name of Andrew Camflleri, who we will consider a hero now and forever. "CHP Assistant Chief Ernest Sanchez said at a news ! conference Monday in Hayward. Sanchez said the driver who hit the officers, a 22-year-old Hayward man. was hospitalized with serious injuries. He is suspected of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, specifically marijuana. The driver's name has not been : released. "I come to you with a broken heart, but also anger,” Sanchez said. "This person chose to drive while under the influence of alcohol and also drugs, and this needs to stop." The two officers were as signed to a "maximum enforcement" Christmas Eve patrol for drunken drivers and speeders and were parked on the shoulder of southbound 1-880 near the Winton Avenue on-ramp when a red Cadillac moving at a high rate of speed drifted off the roadway and struck their vehicle from behind. Sanchez said. Sanchez said both officers were sittirg in the patrol vehicle with their seat belts on. Velasquez, was in the driver's seat, while Camilleri was in the front passenger seat. "The impact was so severe that it turned a utility vehicle into a very small compact vehicle." Sanchez said. “So it kind of gives you an idea of the speeds
He said he had to notify Camilleri's wife, Rosanna, of her husband s death. The couple have a 12-year-old daughter and two sons, ages 6 and 2. “The children were expecting their father to come home and help open Christmas presents," Sanchez said. He said the driver responsible for the fatality will face serious felony charges when he is released from the hospital. “This individual was coming home from a party and obviously had too much to drink and maybe too much to smoke," Sanchez said. “We have enough evidence and enough statements that h»ve been made today to allow us to charge this individual."
Camilleri joined the Highway Patrol in Augustt 2010 and graduatedn the CHP Academy on March 3rd, the patrol said. He was assigned to the Hayward area office.
He grew up in the Tracy area and graduated in 2002 from West High School in Tracy, according to an artirie published in April in the Tracy Press. While in high school he participated in the CHP Tncy office’s Explorer Program for students interested in law enforcement careers. He worked for 13 years for Clark Pest Control in the Tracy area before finally realizing his dream of becoming a member of the CHP.
“Andrew was drawn to this profession due to his courage, his integrity and his desire to serve,” said Capt. Tim Pearson, commander of the CHP Hayward area office. “Andrew was a great man who loved his job, who loved his family." Governor Brown and his wife. Anne Gust Brown, released a statement Monday lamenting the loss of Camilleri. The govemcr said flags at the State Capitol would be flown at half-staff in the officer’s honor. “Anne and I are deeply t saddened to learn of the tragic loss of Officer Camilleri, who died yesterday while working to keep our communities safe’ Brown said. “We join his family, friends and the entire California Highway Patrol in mourning his death and in honoring his sacrifice.⁰

Andrew Joseph Camilleri was mentioned in the San Francisco Chronicle on 28 December 2017: Hundreds mourn fallen CHP officer -- Driver in crash allegedly high, raising pot use alarms -- By Evan Semoffsky
A single bell toll pierced the cold and quiet morning air at the California Highway Patrol Academy in Sacramento on Wednesday — signaling the final end of watch for Hayward CHP Officer Andrew Camillcn, who was killed Christmas Eve by an allegedly intoxicated driver. With bowed heads and tear-filled eyes and clutching single white roses, the Camilleri family sat silently during the procession before hundreds of law enforcement officials and members of the public. It had been three days of heavy sorrow for the officer's wife, Rosanna, and their 12-year-old daughter, Elizabeth, and 6-year-old son, Andrew Jr. The family, excluding Camilleri’s 2-year-old son, placed flowers before a memorial to fallen CHP officers after the bell ringing. On Christinas morning after the crash, Rosanna reportedly waited until the children opened their presents before telling them their father was gone. The officer’s partner, Jonathan Velasquez, who was also injured in the crash that claimed Camill- eri, openly wept with the family. "It’s a very sad and humbling day,” acting CHP Commissioner Warren Stanley said ai the event. "It’S a tragedy for Officer Camilleri’s family. It's a tragedy for the California Highway Patrol. It's a tragedy for the state of California. It's a day that we shouldn’t be here because this did not have to happen.”
The emotional event came after Camilleri, a 33-year-old Tracy resident who graduated from the CHP Academy in March, was killed by a driver allegedly under the influence of alcohol and marijuana. As the CHP honored the officer, state officials began rolling out a planned public awareness campaign to publicize the dangers of driving while high as the state gears up for the fïrcl logoi tales of roorootioool cannabis on Monday. Officials said they found evidence of alcohol and marijuana in the 22-year-old driver's Cadillac after he plowed at high speed into Camilleri’s and Velasquez’s patrol vehicle on the Winton Avenue on- ramp to Interstate 8flo around 11:30 that night. The driver, whose name has not been released, remains hospitalized. The CHP is pushing for felony charges upon his release. During an earlier news conference Wednesday on the steps of the state Capitol, officials said they expect a rise in stoned motorists — along with highway crashes and deaths.
"We have seen mariiuana usage increasing steadily for the last 20 years, starting with medicinal usage and through various stages of decriminalization,'’ said Rhonda Craft, director of the California Office of Traffic Safety. "Jan. 1 ... marks the beginning of legal sales to adults. As has been the case in other states like Colorado and Washington, we fully expect to see an increase in crashes due to marijuana usage."
In fact, state officials said that 42.6 percent of drivers who were given toxicology tests after fatal crashes in 2016 tested positive for drugs — up from 26.2 percent in 2006. Of the drugs, marijuana was the most prevalent. A 2012 study by the Office of Traffic Safety showed that more drivers tested positive for marijuana than alcohol.
But unlike the famed .08 percent blood-alcohol limit, which is measured with a breath, blood or urine test, testing for the psychoactive chemical in marijuana, tetrahydrocannabinol or THC, is

Since voters passed Proposition 64 to legalize the recreational use of marijuana in 2016, California has not in ...eluded specific THC blood-level amounts as part of DUI testing. That's different from Washington, for example, which amended its law to say motorists whose blood contains more than 5 nanograms of THC within two hours of driving are considered under the influence. Nevertheless, the CHP says ' it's ready. Nearly all of ts offi- ¹ cers in the field have advanced roadside impaired drivng enforcement training ir. techniques to determine whether a driver is under the influence of substances other than alcohol. The training goes be/ond a standard field sobriety- test for alcohol and is used in states j where marijuana is legal.
I along with states where it I isn't.! "They're taking your pulse, ?J your heart rate, your blood pressure," CHP Chief Brent ! Newman said of the process, j "They’re looking at all the crazy things your eyes are j doing. They’re looking at coating on the tongue, vour skin."

The CHP launched its campaign Wednesday with a new television commercial along with electronic signs up and down the state's highways reading, “Drive high, get a DUI." Though the campaign was scheduled weeks ago. Camille- ri's death brought a personal resonance to the effort for members of the CHP.
“We’re feeling this loss because it's our officer, but there’s families all over that experience this loss on a loo- frequent basis.” Newman said. “We will mourn this officer and honor him because he was actuallv out there trying...“His first night on the job. he arrested two drunk drivers and he was so excited," said Capi. Tim Pearson with the CHP’s Havward office. "He talked about that for months. That’s what he loved doing. Unfortunately, that’s what has taken him from us."

Andrew Joseph Camilleri was mentioned in the San Francisco Chronicle on 3 January 2018: Andrew Camilleri: Hayward man accused of DUI in I-880 crash that killed father of 3. Murder charge in death of CHP officer -- Hayward man accused of DUI in I-880 crash that killed father of 3 Murder charge in death of CHP officer

San Francisco Chronicle (CA) - Wednesday, January 3, 2018
A 22-year-old Hayward man was charged Tuesday with second-degree murder as well as driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol in the Christmas Eve crash that killed a California Highway Patrol officer and injured his partner. Prosecutors said Mohammed Abraar Ali was driving at 120 mph when he swerved and slammed his red Cadillac CTS-V into a CHP cruiser occupied by Officers Andrew Camilleri and Jonathan Velasquez, who were on patrol for intoxicated drivers and were parked on the Winton Avenue on-ramp to Interstate 880 in Hayward. Camilleri, a married father of three who had graduated from the CHP academy in March, was killed. Velasquez was injured, but has since been released from a hospital. Ali remains hospitalized with undisclosed injuries at Eden Medical Center in Castro Valley. The CHP anticipates he will be released in the coming days and transferred to Santa Rita Jail in Dublin. Ali faces five felony counts, including second-degree murder, driving under the influence of alcohol causing injury, driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol, and recklessly driving at speeds over 100 mph, Alameda County District Attorney Nancy O'Malley said. O'Malley and CHP Chief Ernie Sanchez announced the charges at a news conference Tuesday. In a statement of probable cause accompanying the charging documents, CHP Officer Joshua Hughes wrote that before the 11:30 p.m. crash Ali "was witnessed driving at a high rate of speed and aggressively weaving though traffic." Ali admitted to using marijuana before the crash and had THC in his system, Sanchez said. A blood test at the hospital revealed Ali had a blood alcohol content of .11 percent, Hughes wrote. The legal limit is 0.08 percent. Two days later, Ali admitted to detectives he was drunk and high, and said he had threatened his wife that night before driving from Manteca to Hayward, according to court papers. Ali said he "not only was impaired but that he should have pulled over at least three times, but did not and made the decision to keep driving," Hughes wrote. Sanchez said Ali had never previously been arrested by the CHP for driving under the influence. He had been arrested in December 2013 on suspicion of a burglary in Fremont, but charges in that case were later dismissed, according to the Alameda County Sheriff's Office. Ali has an active security guard license that was issued by the state Bureau of Security and Investigative Services in September 2016.
The crash comes as the CHP rolls out a new statewide public service campaign aimed at combatting driving under the influence of marijuana. State traffic safety officials said they expect an influx of stoned drivers with the legal sale of recreational marijuana that started Monday.
"Drinking and driving is socially unacceptable - smoking marijuana and driving is equally as unacceptable," Sanchez said Tuesday.

Andrew Joseph Camilleri was mentioned in a newspaper article: on 27 December 2018: STOCKTON — In a moving farewell, law enforcement officers from across the country joined family, friends and dignitaries Saturday in honoring the life of rookie California Highway Patrol Officer Andrew J. Camilleri, killed Christmas Eve by a suspected drunken driver. The casket of the 33-year-old father of three arrived at the Christian Life Center under a heavy fog. Once inside the church, Camilleri’s family members approached the open, flag-draped coffin for their final goodbyes before some 2,000 in attendance. Camilleri, a Tracy resident, was killed when a speeding Cadillac drifted off of Interstate 880 in Hayward and slammed into the back of his patrol SUV, which was parked on the shoulder. His partner Jonathan Velasquez, who was in the driver’s seat, was injured but survived. Velasquez, who had not been scheduled to speak, remembered his partner of three months as a “family man” and a “great officer.” Head bowed, he choked up describing their “special bond” developed working the graveyard shift. “I got to know a lot about Andrew and the special person he was,” Velasquez said. “… Andrew I know you can hear me. I love you and it was an honor being your partner. Rest in peace, brother.” Start your day with the news you need from the Bay Area and beyond.

Nearby, Camilleri’s widow Rosanna clasped hands with the couple’s eldest child, 12-year-old Elizabeth, while speakers described the fallen officer as a dedicated family man and a hero who died protecting others. The fallen officer’s brother Matthew delivered the eulogy, with their sister Ashley Wharton by his side. Matthew said his brother had met his future wife while the two were working at a McDonald’s. Camilleri was the manager. He wrote up Rosanna Lopez up for being late. Their working relationship bloomed into a romance and the two married in 2004. The couple has a daughter and two sons.
“Andrew was a role model for all to follow,” Matthew said. “Your beautiful and infectious smile will truly be missed.”
It was Camilleri’s lifelong dream to become a CHP officer. He had previously worked for a pest control company. He graduated from the academy in March last year.
“Andrew’s father, Mike, talked of how Andrew would call and text him all hours of the night telling him how much he loved his job, whether it was helping a disabled motorist or issuing citations to speeding drivers because Andrew liked to drive fast,” said Capt. Tim Pearson, commander of the Hayward division where Camilleri worked. Acting CHP Commissioner Warren Stanley presented Camilleri’s wife with a red box containing his badge, No. 21653. Moments of humor were mixed in with the grief. Pearson addressing Camilleri’s daughter Elizabeth, saying her father used to say he couldn’t wait for her first date.
“Your father had a great sense of humor and said he was going to have a bunch of fellow officers over at the house cleaning their guns when the young man came to pick you up,” Pearson said. “Roxie, when that day comes give us a call and we’ll be there.” Doug Diestler, Camilleri’s pastor at Mission City Church in Tracy, said he and his wife were active in the community, always on the front lines helping others. “His life mattered and it made a difference to everyone in this room,” Diestler said. “This is what we call legacy, what people will remember when you’re gone.” A fund has been established to assist Camilleri’s family.
