The driver allegedly involved in a deadly crash on Harris Grade Road last week has pleaded not guilty to murder.
The charges stemmed from a crash just north of Lompoc last Wednesday.
According to the California Highway Patrol, 23-year-old Brian Hernandez Cervantes was speeding and driving recklessly when he went off the road at a curve and crashed into a tree.
Two young girls, 3-year-old Stella Aliyah Hernandez and 7-month-old Luna Alani Hernandez, died at the scene.
Hernandez Cervantes is due back in court on January 22.
