A farmworker accused of killing seven people in shootings at two Half Moon Bay mushroom farms has been charged with seven counts of murder. Prosecutors filed the charges Wednesday ahead of 66-year-old Chunli Zhao's first court appearance. It is not clear whether Zhao has an attorney to speak for him. Authorities say he killed four people at a mushroom farm in Half Moon Bay where he worked and three more at a nearby farm where he used to work. The charges include allegations that could result in the death penalty or life in prison without parole. The coroner's office has identified six of the victims.
