More litigation has been issued in relation to the previously reported crash involving R&B star Brandy. As previously reported, Brandy (Norwood) stands accused as being the "contributing party" in the four car pile up that took place on the San Diego freeway on 30 Dec last year, and she is already facing legal action from the family of Awatef Aboudihaj, who was killed in the crash.
The latest litigation is between her and another man involved in the incident, Mallory Ham. I'm a bit hazy on quite what happened in this crash, but police reports seem to reckon that Brandy failed to slow down in traffic and hit another car at about 65mph. That car then hit Ham's car, which hit another car. I'm not clear on which car Aboudihaj was in, or whether Ham did something wrong himself, but he was also sued by Aboudihaj's family for negligence. Now Brandy is suing Ham and Ham is suing Brandy - each accusing the other of negligence. Brandy also uses her lawsuit to deny previous allegations made against her in previous litigation, and to assert her constitutional right against self-incrimination.
Outside of the civil courts, the San Diego Attorney's office is still deciding whether or not to charge Brandy with misdemeanour vehicular manslaughter in relation to the crash.
