ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. A New Mexico family is looking for answers after the state recently dismissed charges against a woman accused of killing their granddaughter and one of her friends in a car accident.
In June 2020, Justice Gutierrez Cruz and Felisha Barela were killed in a head-on collision with Cory Johnson.
Johnson was charged with two counts of homicide by vehicle. After spending time in the hospital and in rehab, she was arrested last month. However, two weeks ago her charges were dropped, and she was released from jail.
According to court documents, the state said the defendant “should be released upon the filing of this notice of dismissal.”
