Prosecutors recently charged a bartender who caused a fatal crash on Highway 101 in Santa Maria earlier this month with murder. After initially filing charges of manslaughter and DUI, the Santa Barbara County District Attorney’s Office added the murder charge after discovering 34-year-old Kendra Cordova worked as a bartender and had completed classes on the dangers of drinking and driving. Cordova worked as a bartender for a wedding reception that started on the evening of Sept. 7 and ended on the morning of Sept. 8.
