Hmmm. The details don't sound like manslaughter. She wasn't drunk or anything, just a bad driver.

yea its sad but
either way U look at it she killed somebody

The car in front of her stopped suddenly, she slammed into it, the car then went on to hit two other cars.

She may have been going too fast, she may have been distracted cos she was on the phone, who knows?

she was going only 65mph _{so i heard}

i woludnt look at it that way.

My issue is why should the family of the woman be asking for compensation-would the billion dollars bring the dead back?! why cant they ask for her to be jailed or something! if they seek justice? it crazy how people think

well honey in america dats wot ppl do
when a love is lost they take da accused into court to get some money as a compensation
and with brady being a star and all
i dnt think they will just let her go to jail , and let that be it

I just feel it's not fair on Brandy. The woman that died was just unlucky. Whatever, back to my own problems.

Can you really die if a small car slams into the back of your car and you're using all proper precautions like seat-belts?

ooook

I feel for brandy although this is sad i hope she doesnt go to prison.Heard(linda's blog) one of her co-stars on Moesha too died around that area.Why are the family trying to milk what is a tragedy,feel for them but asking for money is .

An incident that occurred in traffic could result in the Grammy award winning singer going straight to jail,

The California Highway Patrol (CHP) recommended Monday (29 January) that actress-singer Brandy Norwood be charged with misdemeanor vehicular manslaughter in a freeway crash that killed a woman motorist last month, a city attorney's spokesman told The Associated Press.

The charge carries a maximum sentence of one year in county jail and a $1,000 fine.

The fatal incident occurred on 30 December 2006 when traffic slowed and Brandy's vehicle (a Land Rover) struck the back of a Honda driven by 38 year old Awatef Aboudihaj, according to a CHP report.

Aboudihaj's car hit another vehicle, slid sideways into the center divider and was then hit by another car, the report said. Aboudihaj, a Los Angeles waitress, died at a hospital from blunt-force injuries, according to the coroner's office.

It has been revealed that the singer was not under the influence of drugs or alcohol at the time of the crash. Brandy has publicly expressed her condolences to the victim's family.

Can someone please check if this true I am not 100% sure of my sources, only about 95%

What do you think of artists who get away with murder??
What should happen to them in these cases?

Yes its true.
Ironically , a guy from brandy's sitcom moesha also died at that spot in 2005

awww are U serious??
hakeem died at the same spot wow

"Only" a year in jail. "Only". Shows how little you value your own years!

feel u iicee
a year is a lot but i still wonder what happen to 2006 too.it zoom off so fast.
Now is week 7 of 2007 already!

as much as i'd like her to get away with it, it'll seem unfair to others who also commit similar crimes like that!
but then again, she's a celeb. they always seem to get away with stuff like this.

It was not a crime. It was bad driving which resulted in an unlucky result.
It's not as if drivers don't make such mistakes, but they hardly ever result in death. Gah!!

Supposing you open the door of your house one morning, and it hits a visitor who then dies. Is that "crime"

Drinking and driving = crime. Being a bad driver = being a woman. Argh, please stop calling Brandy a criminal.

2 bad. my Afrodisiac is in trouble.

There is no criminal case. The victims family is going for a civili case seeking $50 millions dollars in damages caused.

50 million paaaaa is too much

_{am sure no amount of money will bring her back}
