Another life ruined..

[Mr. Credible]

One is manslaughter the other is vehicular manslaughter. Both are suitable for wrongful death claims.

From wikepidia regarding wrongful death claims:
"The death must have been caused, in whole or in part, by the defendant's conduct, even though there was no direct intention to kill the victim. The defendant must have been deemed negligent or strictly liable for the victim's death. Also the deceased has dependent party such as family members who have suffered from emotional and monetary damages as a result of the death."

okay, i may be wrong, but stabbing a few people to death, and causing a car accident that leads to someone's death are not, in any way, the same thing...

i'm pretty sure that if i went out and purposefully stabbed someone, it would not be called "manslaughter", it would be called "murder".

there is a very big difference there.

 

[Strange]

that may very well be true (and i say "very well" because i'm not entirely sure you didn't make that up just to "prove" your point) but that doesn't make it right.

are the parents of the descesed girl missing out on any money from their daughter being dead? i think not...

like i said: that sucks that their daughter died, and i'm very sorry for their loss, but people die every day. people die from smoking cigartettes, getting hit by busses, falling off of cliffs, drinking, drowning, and whatever other accidents that may happen...

... that doesn't mean that their families deserve any money, let alone $50 million dollars.

They story is true, my uncle went to the auction to try and buy the house as a rental property.

So what is the price for a human life? If it was completely accidental and Brandy was found at no fault what so ever then she should not have to pay anything. But if she was not paying attention or talking on the phone then she should have to pay. She can afford to pay more since she has more. No amount of money is going to make up for the loss of the child but people who have lots of money can hire an expensive lawyer and get out of trouble. If you have no money than its not a big deal but if you are loaded then you will think twice about what you are doing next time if you lose a ton of it.

sorry, but that part makes no sense... i agree, that no amount of money is going to make up for the loss of a child, but that certainly isn't stopping these parent from trying, is it? i'm sorry, but 50 million? with no drunk driving? no drugs? just (as far as anyone knows) an accident? that is in no way worth that amount of money.

either a life is worth 'X' amount of money (or time in jail), or it is worth none... just because a rich person kills someone in an accident, doesn't make the victim's life worth more, or the rich person's crime more severe.

Her recklessness led to a womans death..I say throw her in jail, she is a has been anyway.

 

[terry78]

I never knew how much hatred you people had for Brandy until this incident. She was never one of those celebrities you love to hate, she was just...there. Now all of a sudden she's an evil *****?

 

[Triadkd]

You guys are disgusting. The attacks on brandy are racism, pure and simple. She isnt the first celebrity to commit vehicular manslaughter. Matthew broderick, Rebeca Gayheart, and the guy who plays tweener on prison break was driving drunk as a skunk, with teenagers and he ended up killing one of them. I dont remember any one calling for there heads. Wonder why that is?
You freaks really are a sad miserable bunch. Instead of sitting around making threads like "DUDE! Paris farted!!LOL, and "A girl steped on my foot, does she wanna do it?" Try going outside.

 

[The Apatow Crew]

But does Brandy even have 50 million?


and i saw if she gets convicted she only has to spend a year in jail.

yeah yeah yeah... as soon as a black person is brought up on charges for anything... we got people shouting racism...

just like those punks who beat up those 3 ugly white girls... yeah, that racism because they were tried for assualt.... stop playing the race card...

Dude, is this the best you can do throw out the race card..pathetic.

I don't care if she is black, white, asian, hispanic, or any other race she killed another person through her negligence and if found guilty deserves to put in jail...and you will notice it is all about the celebrity and how it effects her, adn not about the woman that died and how it affects her family.

Mo to the...E to the....

Mo to the...E to the....

This is strangely funny . I think this was an accident that no one could prevent. $50 million is too much for a case.

Yeah, it is a bit too much.

This is who you lame **** heads should be going after. It's funny that I havent seen one thread about this.

Last December, Lane Garrison was involved in a car accident that killed a 17-year-old boy. It was discovered that he had been drinking that night. Lane met the 17-year-old boy and two 15-year-old girls at a gas station where the kids recognized him from his role on Prison Break. They invited him to a party and he went. Later that night, when going to get more booze his Land Rover hit a tree.

TMZ is reporting that the Beverly Hills police department will hold a press conference at 4pm today. Reportedly, they have sent the cast to the Los Angeles County District attorney and are recommending criminal prosecution. His blood alcohol level was said to be “high” and the DA will decide whether or not to press manslaughter charges against him.

He better get busy on doing his ******* exercises, because that thing is going to be put to good use in the clink!

She's an evil ***** even though it was an accident and she wasn't drunk or high?


Alot of people seem to have a general hate towards celebrities, but I'm surprised Brandy was one of them. She hasn't done anything of great significance in a like, how long?

 

[Triadkd]

Exactly these peoples lives are so miserable that they want everyone to suffer as much as they do. And I cant believe the family is suing for 50 million dollars. That is just plain greed. If one of us average joe's killed there daughter do you think they would sue for that much, or even at all?

 

[Abaddon]

I'd sue if someone killed a family member regardless if it was an accident or not. Not so sure about the 50 mill. :unsuresmiley:

 

[logansoldcigar]

The ruined life is that of the woman that got killed, right?
Brandy should go to jail.

Nah, the ruined life of every sucker that has to listen to her ****e excuse for music

 

[Sloth7d]

Are you saying her life was worthless?

Well, the fact that theyd rather recieve money than have her thrown in jail makes it seem like to them yes, its worthless.

 

[heypapajinx]

awww. she should get a freebie.
it is black history month and all.

 

[Sloth7d]

Um.....wow. That was funny in an almost offensive way.
