Celebrity Justice
D.A. Will Not Charge Orlando Bloom

TMZ has learned that the L.A. County District Attorney will not file charges against actor Orlando Bloom over the accident he was involved in on October 12 that injured his two passengers.

In the D.A.'s Charge Evaluation Worksheet, the D.A. states that they are declining to prosecute the "Pirates of the Caribbean" star because of "insufficient evidence."

According to the document, Bloom "was being pursued by 4 vehicles containing paparazzi and one vehicle containing fans." Bloom "took evasive action resulting in a collision."

As for walking away, they say he "walked approximately 60 feet from the scene in an apparent attempt to avoid paparazzi's continued pursuit." They say "[Bloom] was not D.U.I. but was dazed."

1. Just for the record, Erica, Brandy didn't kill anybody. The woman who was killed was DUI, hit a car in front of her and then backed up at speed into Brandy's car. She died because she caused two accidents and was caught in between the two cars.

12. Seriously #6????? Do you separate your oreo cookies so you can talk about how the white part is keeping the black parts from being together??

I think that Brady got off fairly easy for someone who actually killed a person in her at-fault accident. The truth of the matter is, unless you have sat at the legal bench and read through every single peice of evidence, you just dont know how or why a decision is made.

14. This girly wussy wimp got lucky because he's famous. Even if there are photogs bothering you, you don't walk away from bleeding passengers.

Any WHY exactly was he not given a sobriety test?
