Carlos Fierro, a Washington, D.C, attorney and former Congressional staffer who has worked on Indian issues, visited the former WilLee's Blues Club before allegedly hitting and killing Tenorio on November 26, 2008.

Fierro has been charged with vehicular homicide and causing an accident involving death. He wants his trial moved to another county, citing media coverage of the incident.
