LOS ANGELES — The Los Angeles city attorney's office said Friday it will not charge Brandy in a deadly December 2006 freeway crash.
Spokesman Nick Velasquez said there is "insufficient evidence" for a jury to find the 28-year-old actress-singer guilty of misdemeanor vehicular manslaughter beyond a reasonable doubt.
The decision runs counter to a recommendation from the California Highway Patrol that Brandy, whose real name is Brandy Norwood, be charged in the Dec. 30, 2006, crash.
Brandy was driving on a Los Angeles freeway when traffic slowed and her Land Rover smashed into the back of a Honda.
That car was involved in several other collisions. The driver, 38-year-old Awatef Aboudihaj, died in the accident.

This is not surprising considering the recent announcement that the one stopped suddenly first and these kinds of things are very difficult to prove when there's little to no clear evidence Brandy was at fault.
