EUREKA, Calif. — A California woman will serve eight years in prison for killing two teenagers while driving drunk.
Marci Kitchen was sentenced in Eureka on Tuesday.
She pleaded guilty to hitting two 14-year-old girls -- including her daughter Kiya -- more than two years ago.
Kitchen left the scene after the incident. She later claimed she thought that she hit a deer, which the judge didn't believe.
