Glasgow woman faces murder charge in hit-and-run

Posted

A Glasgow woman is in the Boone County Jail, accused of killing 74-year-old Sharon Uebinger of Centralia in a hit-and-run accident on Tuesday, June 16. Amy Renee Rievley, 36, was originally charged with driving while intoxicated causing serious injury, a Class D felony, and leaving the scene of an accident, a Class E felony. On Wednesday prosecutors added a charge of second-degree murder, a Class A felony, after Uebinger died as a result of her injuries.

According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol, Rievley was eastbound on Lakeview Street in Centralia shortly after 7 p.m. June 16, driving a 2005 Honda Pilot SUV. She veered off the right side of the roadway and where she struck Uebinger, who was walking her dog. Rievley then made a u-turn and fled the scene.

Rievley was later located in Howard County and arrested for driving while intoxicated.

Uebinger was pronounced dead at University Hospital in Columbia at 12:59 p.m. the following day.

Rievley is currently being held without bond in the Boone County Jail. She was arraigned and denied bond on June 17.

She is scheduled to appear before Judge Stephanie Morrell in Boone County court for a hearing on June 23, and a case review on July 7, when a preliminary hearing will be scheduled. Court documents do not have an attorney listed for Rievley.

This is not Rievley’s first brush with the law. According to online court documents, she was put on two years probation in July 2018 after she pleaded guilty to second-degree tampering with a motor vehicle in Hallsville, and served 10 days in jail for driving with a revoked license, marijuana possession, and unlawful use of drug paraphernalia in 2006. Court records dating back to 2002 show that Rievley has pleaded guilty to a slew of crimes including fourth-degree assault, second-degree property damage, leaving the scene of a motor vehicle accident, peace disturbance, drug use, passing bad checks, domestic assault, and driving while intoxicated.
