Brandy
is
being
sued
for
$50
million
for
her
involvement
in
a
fatal
car
crash.
The
wrongful
death
lawsuit,
filed
by
the
parents
of
Awatef
Aboudihah
who
died
in
the
crash,
claims
Brandy
was
"driving
recklessly" when
she
hit
their
daughter's
vehicle.
A
representative
for
Brandy
said:
"The
accident
was
a
terrible
tragedy
and
Brandy's
heart
goes
out
to
Awatef
Aboudihaj's
family.
But
for
legal
reasons
we
cannot
comment
on
this
lawsuit."
The
suit,
which
was
filed
in
Los
Angeles'
Superior
Court
on
January
30,
comes
a
day
after
the
California
Highway
Patrol
recommended
Brandy
is
charged
with
misdemeanour
vehicular
manslaughter.
The
Los
Angeles
City
Attorney's
office
is
reviewing
the
case
and
will
decide
whether
to
file
the
charge.
If
the
Moesha
star
is
charged
and
subsequently
found
guilty,
the
27-year-old
could
face
a
year
in
jail.
On
December
30
Brandy
-
real
name
Brandy
Norwood
-
was
driving
on
a
Los
Angeles
freeway
when
traffic
slowed
and
her
car
hit
Aboudihah,
38.
Aboudihah's
car
hit
another
vehicle,
slid
sideways
into
the
central
reservation
and
was
hit
by
another
car.
Aboudihah,
a
married
mother-of-one,
died
in
hospital
from
blunt-force
injuries.
Brandy
has
reportedly
added
crisis-management
specialist
Allan
Mayer
to
her
PR
team
to
salvage
her
reputation.
