I've researched this over and over on the Internet, but it seems nobody wants to disclose who killed Sam Kinison, nor do they mention what his punishment was.

Kinison was working to become clean and sober in the months before his death, and he married his girlfriend Malika Souiri in 1992. Just six days after the wedding, Kinison's black Corvette was struck by a seventeen-year-old drunk driver near the center of the two lane bridge that crosses the Colorado River between Fort Mohave, Arizona and Needles, California. He was not wearing a seat belt, and his head struck the windshield upon impact. A passerby immediately notified emergency services and attempted CPR, but with no success. Kinison was taken to the Needles Desert Community Hospital but died of his injuries on the way. He was 38 years old.
Because the driver of the other car was, at that time, a teenager, his/her name was not revealed. The records would be open now, but you'd have to have the legal right to dig into them.

Since he was killed after being hit by a teenager who was driving drunk, likely the name of that teenager is kept private due to his age and any punishment would be minimal - again because of his juvenile status.

He died in a solo drunk driving accident driving from Las Vegas to Los Angeles (I think it was LA). It was in all the papers, so you should be able to find alot of open source information on it.
Okay, it looks like Nikki S. actually did research on this while I was going from memory. Give the points to Nikki.

It was a car crash .I think it was a head-on ; maybe because it was an under-age driver in the other car .

He was self destructive due to his drug use. He did get the death penalty!
