Caitlyn Jenner could face manslaughter charges in 2014 fatal crash - newsnet5.com

Sheriff's investigators plan to recommend prosecutors file a vehicular manslaughter charge against Caitlyn Jenner for her role in a fatal car crash on the Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu last February, officials said Thursday. Investigators found that Jenner was driving "unsafe for the prevailing road conditions" because her SUV rear-ended a Lexus, pushing it into oncoming traffic, Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department spokeswoman Nicole Nishida said. Jenner was hauling an off-road vehicle on a trailer behind her Cadillac Escalade on Feb. 7 when she steered to avoid cars slowing for a traffic light in front of her on Pacific Coast Highway. Jenner's SUV rear-ended two cars, pushing a Lexus into oncoming traffic. The district attorney's office will determine what charges Jenner ultimately faces. If convicted of such a charge, Jenner could face up to one year in county jail. The fatal crash occurred months before Caitlyn Jenner's transition.
