Man Pleads Guilty in Deadly Motorcycle Collision in San Clemente

A 43-year-old man pleaded guilty Wednesday to a hit-and-run collision on a 
motorcycle that killed a pedestrian in San Clemente.

Adam Jerhemie Horner was riding a motorcycle that struck 61-year-old Susan 
Fernandez of San Clemente about 9:50 p.m. April 14, 2021, near El Camino 
Real and Boca De La Playa, according to Carrie Braun of the Orange County 
Sheriff’s Department.

Fernandez was pronounced dead at the scene, she said.

Witnesses gave deputies a description of the motorcyclist and Horner was 
arrested nearby about a half-hour after the collision, Braun said.

When sheriff’s deputies questioned Horner he falsely claimed his 
motorcycle was stolen before the collision, according to testimony at his 
preliminary hearing.

Horner pleaded guilty to a felony count of hit-and-run with permanent and 
serious injury and misdemeanor counts of vehicular manslaughter and making 
a false police report. He also admitted an infraction for driving without 
a motorcycle license.

Horner was scheduled to be sentenced Sept. 10 in the Central Justice 
Center in Santa Ana.

All motorcyclists are reckless dangers to society.  Kill this one just 
like he killed the helpless pedestrian.  Tie him to railroad tracks and 
let a train run over him.
