The California Highway Patrol, who seem to be way more serious than Erik Estrada made them out to be, are suggesting Brandy be prosecuted for vehicular manslaughter.
The accident claimed the life of 38-year-old Awatef Aboudihaj. An eyewitness tells TMZ Brandy was traveling at around 65 miles per hour but did not stop when traffic in front of her slowed. Brandy's vehicle struck the vehicle in front of her and triggered a four car crash. There is no evidence of drugs or alcohol and Brandy was not arrested.
A CHP rep tells TMZ that although his department believes Brandy's negligence caused the crash, he does not believe the accident was caused by gross negligence. If officials found gross negligence, Brandy could be prosecuted for felony manslaughter.
The case has now been referred to the Los Angeles City Attorney's office for review.
The pictures of the accident look bruuuuutal. I haven't included the one in which there's a person on a stretcher visible. It's not much different than these, and I thought you might want to get to sleep tonight.
UPDATE: I had to take down the photos. So the bad news is that you can't see any of them here now. You have to go to the sources below to see them. Sorry. The only good news is that, if your morbid curiosity had you itching to see that stretcher pic, you'll find it there.

I think, in a perfect world, she'd never work again. Maybe I'm just jealous, but I think KILLING someone should be grounds for suspension of celebrity priviledges.
Alas, Rebecca Gayheart ran over a 9-year-old boy a few years ago, and she just had to do community service. And she got right back to making bad TV.
don't worry…. she'll have the church of scientology send over their best lawyers at a snap of the fingers. she'll just get a slap on the wrist for texting on her smartphone while driving and then put out a record. who needs nationwide when you have xenu on your side!
"these ones" Cord - grammar check maybe?
I think its really decent of you not to post that photo…thanks Cord :)
You're right. I'll change it.
Wow, she must have some good peripheral vision though. Those eyes are more suited for watching out for predators than watching the road.
So tired of the double standard of dealing with every day Joes, and so-called celebities. I'm sick of race, celebrity, and all the shit. Someone died! Do something REAL about it!!!
