OREGON CITY, OR — Prosecutors say an Oregon man not only caused a fatal crash while on shrooms, but also laughed about the incident in phone calls from jail.
According to the Clackamas County District Attorney’s Office, Fullington William Frazer III, who was under the influence of psychedelic mushrooms when he ran a red light and caused a fatal crash, was convicted of manslaughter and other crimes by a jury on Tuesday.
Frazer gave his roommate, Mitchell Scott Barr, a ride to a grocery store in Milwaukie on the night of Dec. 30, 2023. On the way, Frazer sped through a red light at around 60 miles per hour at the intersection of Southeast Freeman Way and Highway 224 in Milwaukie.
Frazer collided with a Prius, then hit a Subaru driven by Fleetwood Mars Mozee.
Barr was ejected from Frazer’s car. Barr, 24, and Mozee, 37, were killed. The driver of the Prius and his passenger were injured.
An Oregon State Police trooper who responded to the scene called it “one of the most destructive crashes he’d ever seen,” said Clackamas County Deputy District Attorney Chelsea Jones in her closing argument.
Frazer, 23, was convicted on two counts of Manslaughter in the First Degree, Driving Under the Influence of Intoxicants, Reckless Driving, two counts of Recklessly Endangering Another Person, and two counts of Assault in the Fourth Degree.
Jones told jurors that Frazer acted recklessly and “with extreme indifference to the value of human life” by driving while impaired and blasting through a red light.
Evidence showed that Frazer increased the speed of his Dodge Caliber to nearly 60 miles per hour as he approached the intersection.
“He was going pedal to the metal,” Jones said.
A toxicology test found Frazer had psilocybin mushrooms in his system.
Frazer exhibited bizarre behavior at the crash scene and later at a hospital. When asked if he needed medical attention, Frazer responded, “I just want the love.”
Frazer was transported to Oregon Health & Science University hospital where he was interviewed by another Oregon State Police trooper. Frazer did not recall having a passenger in his car.
After being told two people died in the crash, he asked, “Are they okay?” Jones said.
Frazer, in jail calls days after the crash, appeared to show no remorse and laughed when talking about his deceased roommate.
Mozee was employed by Multnomah County as a veterans’ services specialist, helping veterans obtain benefits. Jones noted that a bumper sticker on Mozee’s car read, “Do It Sober.”
Frazer was on probation for a 2021 public indecency conviction at the time of the fatal collision. Frazer had previously been involved in a high-speed crash in Portland on March 2023 when he was the sole person injured.
Frazer will be sentenced at 10 a.m. May 2.
Presumption of Innocence: A presumption of innocence means that any defendant in a criminal trial is presumed to be innocent until they have been proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law. The defendant in this case is only accused of the charges set forth in the criminal complaint. They are innocent until proven guilty.
