Mercury News: Gilroy: Driver charged with murder in DUI crash that killed pregnant woman
GILROY — A Mountain View man with four prior DUI convictions has been charged with murder after authorities say his blood-alcohol level was twice the legal limit during a head-on crash on New Year’s Day that killed a pregnant woman and her unborn child, court records show.
Jesus Carlos Temores, 50, faces two counts of murder in the deaths of 29-year-old Rachel Marie Gonzalez Gallegos and her five-month-old fetus, according to a California Highway Patrol report and criminal complaint filed Tuesday by the Santa Clara County District Attorney’s Office.
Prosecutors also charged Temores with a count of driving under the influence of alcohol causing injury, for the reported injuries suffered by the man driving the vehicle in which Gonzalez Gallegos was riding.
