Major Development in Garrison Case

Lane GarrisonThere is an important development in the Lane Garrison case. The Beverly Hills police will conduct a news conference at 4:00 PM today. TMZ has now learned the police have sent the Garrison case to the Los Angeles County District Attorney for possible criminal prosecution. The D.A. must now decide whether to prosecute the "Prison Break" star for felony vehicular manslaughter.

Garrison's blood alcohol level has now been determined. Sources tell TMZ the actor's blood alcohol level was "high."

Garrison was behind the wheel when his Land Rover crashed into a tree in Beverly Hills on December 2, killing 17-year-old Vahagn Setian.

As TMZ first reported,
Garrison met Setian and two 15-year-old girls hours before the crash. The teens invited the actor to a party. People who attended the party tell TMZ they saw Garrison drink between four and seven shots of Grey Goose vodka in a short period of time.

Garrison's high-powered celebrity defense lawyer, Harland Braun, tells TMZ his client was heading back to his apartment when the crash occurred.

2. Good. Shame on a 27 year old man drinking and partying with underage kids and then driving drunk.

3. Yeah, now they want garrison. He actually killed a kid (not that he meant to) but they filed charges against BRANDY within a few days of her accident when she didn't even kill the driver. She hit a car, that hit the victim's car, which pushed it to the street where it was hit by someone else.

Go ahead, try to defend this sick-ass, white, pedophile!! He looks like most of the pathetic, cracker, losers I see on the street everyday, no different!!!

5. While this is a very sad ending. I am still trying to figure out why there were no adults supervising this underage drinking at the home. Garrison should have had more sense, but I guess being famous and rich makes you "not think before you jump".

9. FARRAH, you are as big a RACIST as you claim the people who post on here are. No one made a recist remark, and you are calling people CRACKERS! Did you ever think that you could be the RACIST one, and you just haven't realized it yet!

No one is playing the race card, why do you? Keep your RACIST comments to yourself. You call white people crackers, Jewish people jews, and who knows what else. I understand there are a lot of racist people out there, and you are one of them. Practice what you Preach Farrah. No one wants to hear you RACIST comments.

11. There only making an example of him because he's white! Damn Haters!!!!

12. Finally! I hope he goes to jail for a long time, but we all know he won't. He will get sued just like Brandy and pay. No amount of money can bring back a child or a mother. While Brandy's was not an alcohol involved accident she should not have been traveling as fast as she was and riding people's asses (we all know if she had kept the minimum required space she would not have caused such a devastating accident) so she needs to serve time, not just a fine. This loser, he was driving drunk and I think he needs to pay a fine and then go to jail like a murder would.

As far as the poster who said something about charging Brandy immediately after her accident, she admitted fault first of all, second of all there were quite a few witnesses. Unfortunately, in DUI cases they tend to take a while to charge someone unless there is a witness. Even if he was taken to jail that night (which sadly enough bond is 9 times out of 10 posted), it still takes weeks if not months to file charges.

Farrah, Farrah, Farrah. You poor excuse for a human being. I have been reading your comments and you give me a good chuckle with are your "higher power" on racism. And I realize you say these things to get arouse out of people, which it works. But do you actually read what you type? You complain about "Crackers" okay fine, we used to beat you with whips and put you in chains - like 100 years ago, so get over it, it wasn’t you personally that we did it too. But on one of your quotes you said something against a Jew. Now, what did the Jews do to you? You are a very racist human being if you truly mean what you type, which I don't think you do. I think you just enjoy reading what people will say, like me.

13. Now, You people see how it is to be bashing Brandy. This rich ass killed a child by driving drunk. He had the nerve to be drinking with minors lock his ass up for life. He dosen't deserve a trail!!!!

14. So, Farrah...all white people look alike...is that the same as all blacks look alike or all asians look alike...

Two different sets of circumstances...perhaps Brandy-ho should have turned down the music and taken her blue tooth out of her ear and put her blackberry down while she drives..she is guilty of CAUSING the death of another human being.

As far as this other butt-wipe...according to his attorney he was returning home...with what...two underage girls in the car...and where do we think that was leading. He should be charged with first degree vehicular homicide. He is old enough to know better, definitely had the cash to get a cab and had two underage people in his car....

BIG QUESTION:....where were the parents of the 17yr old and the two 15yr olds...DONT YOU KNOW WHERE YOUR CHILD IS, AND WHO THEY ARE WITH???
