Jamie Lee Komoroski, who was three times the legal blood alcohol limit, drove into the newlyweds’ golf cart at 65mph as they left their wedding reception on Folly Beach, North Carolina.
Hutchinson spent weeks in the hospital and eventually recovered. His bride died shortly after the horrifying crash.
Yesterday, he told a courtroom what her final words were.
‘She said she didn’t want the night to end, I kissed her on the head, the next thing I knew I woke up in hospital,’ Aric said.
Komoroski, who previously told friends she was ready to ‘live her best life’ after getting out of jail, sobbed as she was jailed until 2049.
Hutchinson also revealed the moment he regained consciousness in the hospital and realized his wife was dead.
Hutchinson was left gravely-injured by the smash and revealed the extent of his injuries to the court Monday.
‘I’ve seen more doctors, therapists, and psychiatrists than I can count, and I still feel the same as I did when I found out that day.
‘I wish I had died that night. I wish I had seen it coming. I’d have jumped off the golf cart so that you’d only have run me over.
‘We did not get hit, we got ran through at 65mph.’
