Authorities to recommend manslaughter charge for Caitlyn Jenner in fatal crash
Dallas Morning News ^ | 8/20/15 | staff

Sheriff’s investigators plan to recommend prosecutors file a vehicular manslaughter charge against Caitlyn Jenner for her role in a fatal car crash on the Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu last February, officials said Thursday. Investigators found that Jenner was driving “unsafe for the prevailing road conditions” because her SUV rear-ended a Lexus, pushing it into oncoming traffic, Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department spokeswoman Nicole Nishida said. Jenner was hauling an off-road vehicle on a trailer behind her Cadillac Escalade on Feb. 7 when she steered to avoid cars slowing for a traffic light in front of her on Pacific Coast Highway. Jenner’s SUV rear-ended two cars, pushing a Lexus into oncoming traffic. The Lexus driver, 69-year-old Kim Howe, was killed when her car was struck head-on by a Hummer. The case will be presented to prosecutors for final review next week, Nishida said. The district attorney’s office will determine what charges Jenner ultimately faces. If convicted of such a charge, Jenner could face up to one year in county jail. Jenner’s attorney Blair Berk declined comment. The fatal crash occurred months before Caitlyn Jenner’s transition. She was formerly known as Bruce Jenner, the 1976 Olympic decathlon champion and Kim Kardashian’s stepfather.

They’ll send it to jail so that the citizens of California can pay the rest of it’s medical bills to complete the transformation.

So this whole "sexual identity" thing has been a gigantic ruse so that Bruce Jenner could serve his time in a women's prison. Bruce! You stud! I KNEW you weren't a pervert!

Is it just possible that Jenner knew this was likely to occur, so the whole sex-change thingee is a ploy to maybe get him a reduced/suspended sentence..”she’s still post-op..the psychological trauma of jail would be cruel..” or even that the stresses of his upcoming” change led to him’her being distracted..causing the accident...

Good luck proving it, unless he was high or deliberately crashed into her.

The charge is presumably vehicular manslaughter, not murder. The charge doesn't require "deliberately" crashing into someone. Since Jenner rear-ended someone in broad daylight, I think it's pretty easy to see negligence, which is an element of misdemeanor vehicular manslaughter. Inattention, driving too fast for road conditions, etc.

But I'm not an attorney.

“She” still has a Y chromosome and is still a man.

Was he a she at the time of the accident? What does the drivers license say? What will the charges say?

I just have to wonder if this incident had something to do with him deciding to call himself ‘Caitlin’. Perhaps the ‘trauma’ associated with it is what made him mental.

That's right. Bruce still has XY chromosomes and allways will. That can not be changed, there is no such thing as a "transgender". This is a XY male crossdresser named Bruce.

I used to ask, what is Bruce running from in his attempts to become a woman? Vehicular manslaughter charges.
