It happened years ago, get over it people! Yes a women is dead but it was an honest accident. Brandy payed her debts and settled out of court, it's done! There is nothing more She can do You ignorant fools, there is no point in arguing about a matter that took place 10 years ago.

No She wasn't You idiot.

She was on her cellphone- that is negligence!

Deadly auto accidents happen all the time. I don't get why people are so judgemental AT ALL. There have been times when I have came close to hitting someone because I wasn't paying attention momentarily, and I have friends and family that have been in crashes that have been pretty bad FOR INSTANCE.
I could understand holding it against her if she was drunk driving, yes, but it was a mistake.

I have to say, that she did not get 'off the hook'. Her career is dead, and the only people who will sign her is a third rate record company.
But I am not gonna pull the race card. Far from it. Rebecca Gayheart killed a kid in a car accident, and got off lightly, despite conviction. Her career is dead, just like that kid she hit.
That video of her naked with a beauty queen is just irritating, because she's high and clearly doing damage to other people, such as her husband's career.
Matthew Broderick killed two people in Ireland, in addition to injuring his then girlfriend, Jennifer Grey, who is still getting treatment for those injuries 20 years later. His career isn't any healthier.
But what got all those people out of trouble was simple - money and PR.
Brandy was able to get out of manslaughter charges because the victim had marijuana in her system.
But her career never recovered. Because this was a long line of incidents that permanently tarnished her image.
When she got Punk'd, comments that she made turned quite alot of folks against her. Then there was her pregancy where she lied about being married, and getting divorced, including a reality TV show 'chronicling' her relationship with the dad, and the pending arrival of her baby. Everything but the birth of the kid was faked for cameras, but I would not be surprised if that wasn't real either. And before that, there was the time she lied about dating a much older dude, saying she was not in a relationship All to preserve her image. You publicly put out so much lies, eventually people are gonna wonder when the heck one is telling the truth.
I have to say I did see her behind the music special, and boy, was it bad. IT just seemed like an excuse for her to make excuses for the things she has done. None of which were believable. Also interesting that her mother did not take part in that show. And then she had to stuff a memorial to Whitney Houston into it.
Tacky.

and rightly so

Aboudihaj's parents filed a $50 million wrongful death lawsuit.
gotta figure they got at least half in the settlement.

After reading the wiki page, I've got to say, it sounds like an honest accident. I am going to have to agree with the police on that one.

Getting distracted while driving and driving under the influence are two completely different things. They are both wrong by lawbut in no other way are they comparable.

Well said Mike2820sport. I completely agree.

If it's only an ACCIDENT
That must mean in your world if a drunk driver crosses over the yellow line and collides with someone head on and kills them, they shouldn't be charged with a crime, because 2000it was just an ACCIDENT. Like you said, they weren't out there trying to "hunt someone down and kill them".
What's the difference between a drunk driver and someone who uses their phone while driving? They're both impaired/distracted from what they should really be doing, which is driving.

iysis.
So your telling me if someone hits your car accidentally, totals it and causes the death of a loved one who was in your car with you, you wouldn't sue to at least cover the financial costs of the accident? Shows you are about as idiotic as Brandy is.

Brandy was in a car accident ACCIDENT damn it's not like she set out to hunt someone down and kill them. Lord knows some of these other celebs need their license taken away quick for super reckless driving too but she paid for her mistake in this ACCIDENT. If someone accidentally slammed into your car and caused some damage would you sue even if it was an ACCIDENT?

Oh yeah, it
totally
wasn't her fault. I mean, it must have been pretty important for her to be on her cell in order for her not to be paying attention while she was driving! PUH-LEAZE! Everyone knows you should never be on the phone while you're driving because it results in just what happened. Of course her money and fame got her out of trouble. Someone died because she decided to be stupid and not pay attention to her surroundings. The only consolation is that she'll have to live the rest of her life with the knowledge she killed a person5b4 and no amount of anyone trying to convince her it wasn't her fault won't change a damn thing.
Oh members of IMDb, yours is a dim-witted and insane lot!

Both Brandi and her brother are a couple of low lifes.
They're both ugly and use everbody to get some publicity for their mediocre carees

Uhh no. People who aren't famous serve more time.. Celebrities may spend like a week or less
Ugh.
Merry Christmas,
The sh!tter was full.

It was proven not her fault? She had to shell out a buttload of money to the husband of the deceased. She also settled on other lawsuits stemming from her negligence as well. Answer me this question- if it was proven not her fault, why the settlements?
Maybe you should get your facts straight. Maybe you should have some sympathy for the deceased instead of defending the person THAT CAUSED HER DEATH.

You're all disgusting. The accident have been PROVEN that it was NOT her fault. A life was taken have some sympathy and get your facts straight.
Take the
RED
pill:

For something that was supposedly not her fault, she sure shelled out a buttload of money for people. Plus, I think it is safe to say that her career has tanked since the accident- justice has been served.

Ummmit was proven it wasn't even her fault. As a matter of fact all of the people involved didn't know who she was until the idiots at LAPD released a statement TMZ stating she was involved in an accident. Everyone sued her because of who she was. Get your facts rightit seems it's easy blame the wealthy. Not everyone is Charlie Sheen.

Let's not forget Senator Ted Kennedy who not only killed his young female passenger, but left the scene of the crime, then told several versions of what happened. He went on to serve as Chairman of the Senate ETHICS Committee. This was in 1969. He remained a Senator for 40 more years.

No celebrities have served time for killing someone in a car accident: Former First Lady Laura Bush, Matthew Broderick, Rebecca Gayheart
