Woman gets one year for murder accessory charge

POMONA -- A woman has pleaded no contest to charges that she acted as an accessory to a killing here last year, a prosecutor said today.

Prosecutors accused Jessica Prendiz, 21, of trying to dispose of a gun used in the Sept. 29 fatal shooting of Armando Vidana.

Prendiz, of Pomona, was sentenced to a year in jail after pleading no contest Jan. 27 in Pomona Superior Court, said Deputy District Attorney Bjorn Dodd.

Charged with murder for Vidana's killing is Robert Caballero, 32. Caballero is also charged with murder in connection with two other killings last year, and could face the death penalty.

Caballero and three other men charged in connection with the killings are next due in court April 9.
