Yuba City Woman Convicted Of Second-Degree Murder In DUI Crash That Killed Teen
BUTTE COUNTY (CBS13) - A jury has convicted a Yuba City woman of second-degree murder in the death of a 13- year-old boy.

She was also convicted of gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated, hit-and-run resulting in death or permanent serious injury, and misdemeanor child endangerment since her kids were in the car at the time of the crash.
