The California Highway Patrol recommended Monday that actress-singer Brandy be charged with misdemeanor vehicular manslaughter in a freeway crash that killed a woman motorist last month.
January 30, 2007 (Press Release) --
The CHP referred the matter to the city attorney's office for review, spokesman Nick Velasquez said.
Brandy's publicist did not immediately reply to a request for comment. Brandy, whose real name is Brandy Norwood, has publicly expressed condolences to the victim's family, her publicist said last week. She also said Brandy wasn't under the influence of drugs or alcohol at the time of the crash.
Brandy, 27, was driving a Land Rover on Interstate 405 on Dec. 30 when traffic slowed and her vehicle struck the back of a Honda driven by Awatef Aboudihaj, 38, 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. The coroner's office said Aboudihaj died at a hospital from blunt-force injuries.
Brandy earned a Grammy in 1999, starred on the sitcom ''Moesha'' from 1996-2001 and recently was a judge for NBC's ''America's Got Talent.''
