Celebrity Justice
Brandy's Lawyer to CHP -- You Did Her Wrong

Brandy and Blair Berk Brandy's high-powered attorney, Blair Berk, released the following statement exclusively to TMZ:

"We are extremely pleased that after a more thorough and extensive investigation by authorities, the Los Angeles City Attorney has determined that Brandy Norwood should not be charged with any crime whatsoever relating to the accident back in 2006."

She continued, "These past 12 months have posed an extraordinary hardship for Brandy and her family, who have been unfairly forced to live under a cloud of suspicion initially caused by the ill-advised and premature press release sent out by the California Highway Patrol accusing Brandy of wrongdoing before the police investigation was even finished. However, Brandy continues to be mindful that she was so fortunate to be uninjured in this accident and there was a life lost that should be remembered."

61. Smoking da weed can compromise your driving skills. The woman who died behind the wheel had some ganja in her system.

65. 9. If this story was about a "regular" person, we would be reading a lot of comments about how we need to forgive her...but since she's famous it seems automatic to say that her lawyer is " blaming the dead". The fact is the woman was at fault,its unfortunate that she didnt make it but its still a fact. We shouldnt condem brandy because she sought the truth...she claimed her innocence from the beginning. its easy to forget that celebrities are people too...and they deserve justice like everyone else.

Dear, are you so dumb. The DA's dept. investigated and they are the ones who said the other woman caused the accident. You need to learn reading comprehension. Brandy's lawyer did not declare Brandy innocent, the DA did. YOU DUMMY, LEARN READING COMPREHENSION.

66. #14 you are racist and i will be praying for you.

brandy was not negligent accidents happen, and maybe she can breath a sigh of relief after a year of criticism from people who knew nothing about what happened that day.

Posted at 7:23PM on Dec 28th 2007 by i hate racist people

67. It took a whole year to conduct this investigation. Yeah, right!

68. Did anyone not read about the "dead woman" having drugs in her system at the time of the accident? How is that letting Brandy off? She didn't do anything wrong. Unlike those who really have like Paris, Lindsay, and Mischa, they all got what they deserve after they were proved wrong. Don't hate cuz Brandy was innocent. Haters!!!

69. She doesn't give a rats ass that someone died. She's just like every other celebrity, anyone who isn't them isn't worth being alive.

70. If Brandy was a normal person, charges would have been brought against her and she would have already been in jail, but since she is a celebrity, obviously the laws do not apply to her. Just because the woman rear ended another car before Brandy hit her should not clear Brandy. The death is still her fault for not controlling her speed to prevent the accident.

71. I guess in the world if you are famous and have alot of money...murder is the "poor" people's fault. If it would have been anyone else in the world that didn't have money they would be serving the rest of their life or even executed. If Brandy can go to sleep at night knowing that she killed the mom of two children then more power to her but I still think she is a BITCH for what she did...She does need to go to jail...Money isn't going to bring that lady back and BLAMING THE DEAD lady is just a freakin' excuse to not take responsibility....

If you do the crime...do the time BITCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

72. Brandy has NOT been determined not at fault. The DA simply decided there is not enough evidence to prove that she caused the woman's death. The fact is that Brandy rear-ended the woman's car and is at fault for doing so. And she refuses to apologize for doing so, because her sleazy lawyer has warned her that such an apology could be construed as an admission of guilt on her part. Well the lawyer gets paid, Brandy gets paid, and some kids get Christmas without their mom. Just another day of sleaze and injustice in lalaland. I hope there's a special hell for sleazy lawyers.

73. OMG people can be so racist. #45 I agree totally and completely with you (and a couple others). The rest of you racist a**holes need to grow up and get the facts. What happened to "innocent until proven guilty"? Well she is innocent. Leave her alone. If it were you in her situation and you had been blasted all over the internet and news for being the one who killed someone yet you knew in your heart you were innocent what would you do? Leave the girl alone and let her get on with her life. Yeah I know the other lady can't do that now, but because she chose to drive while under the influence of drugs then WHOSE FAULT IS THAT???

Posted at 10:38PM on Dec 28th 2007 by OMG People Please WAKE UP

74. Doesn't the fact remain that she was driving too fast and hit the car in front of her? To say she did NOTHING wrong is bogus, all they can really claim is that she was not the SOLE cause of the woman's death. Both her and the woman herself are to blame.

75. WE are ALL serve by the PEOPLE'S court.
