A judge has denied the defense’s motion to dismiss murder charges against 24-year-old Fraser Michael Bohm, who’s accused of killing four Pepperdine University sorority sisters in a 2023 crash on Pacific Coast Highway. The defense argued there wasn’t enough evidence to prove implied malice — that Bohm knowingly drove recklessly with awareness of the danger — but the judge ruled the prosecution provided sufficient data for the defense to evaluate. Bohm, then 22, faces four murder and four vehicular manslaughter counts. The crash occurred when his car swerved onto the shoulder, hitting parked vehicles that then struck the students — all seniors set to graduate. The case, originally scheduled for September, now moves forward as calls grow louder for improved safety on that stretch of PCH, which has a history of deadly accidents.
