The woman who was driving the car that hit and killed the girlfriend of Cleveland Browns defensive end Chris Smith reportedly won’t face any charges related to the incident, police told Cleveland.com on Saturday.
Petara Cordero had just exited Smith’s vehicle after his 2019 Lamborghini had a tire malfunction and hit the median and that’s when she was struck and killed while standing on the shoulder along Interstate 90 in Cleveland on Sept. 11th.
The 47-year-old woman, who had admitted to drinking prior to the crash, smashed into the passenger side of Smith’s car. Police told Cleveland.com that the woman driving the vehicle that hit Smith’s car was not impaired, driving recklessly or speeding, and toxicology results showed she was not legally drunk.
Smith and Cordero just had a daughter in August. She was just 26.
