A 33-year-old man drove in excess of 100 miles per hour on Sepulveda Boulevard while singing along to loud music to impress a date when he crashed into another car making a left turn, killing one of the three occupants inside, then ran away, according to testimony and arguments from a preliminary hearing earlier this month.
A Torrance Superior Court judge on Nov. 4 ordered Kameron Lee Peterson to stand trial on counts of second-degree murder, hit-and-run driving causing death or serious injury and reckless driving with injuries, Deputy District Attorney Geoff Lewin said.
A transcript of the preliminary hearing was provided to the Southern California News Group.
A motion by Peterson’s attorney, Robert Ernenwein, to dismiss the murder charge was denied by Judge Thomas R. Sokolov.
