Antonio Catarino-Reyes was sentenced to four days' time served after pleading no contest to an accessory charge, records show.
On Nov. 16, 2021, a Chevy Silverado ran a red light at Union Avenue and 21st Street. It smashed into the back of a vehicle driven by 40-year-old Fedricia Harrison, leaving her with fatal injuries and resulting in the pileup.
Arrested in Madera — where the brothers are from — Jose Catarino-Reyes admitted to driving the Chevy. After the crash, he got into a vehicle driven by Antonio Catarino-Reyes, who'd been driving behind him, and they left the scene, according to reports filed in Superior Court.
