ATTORNEY ANGRY ABOUT BRANDY CRASH
LATEST: The attorney representing the husband of the woman killed in a 30 December (06) car pile-up involving singer BRANDY has attacked the Los Angeles authorities for not making the case a priority.
The R+B singer, real name BRANDY NORWOOD, failed to notice cars slowing down in front of her on the 405 freeway in Los Angeles and ploughed her Land Rover into a Toyota, setting off a chain reaction of collisions.
The pile-up left the driver of the Toyota Brandy hit, AWATEF ABOUDIHAJ, critically injured. She died later in hospital.
Brandy recently issued a public apology as a fellow motorist involved in the crash revealed the singer admitted fault at the scene.
The R+B star was not arrested, but Los Angeles police officials, who have spent the last month investigating the crash, are set to hand the matter over to prosecutors.
Attorney BILL SAYED, who is representing the deceased woman's husband, has slammed the authorities, claiming they kept information from his client in a bid to protect a celebrity.
He says, "I think there may have been a level of quietness due to the fact Ms Norwood was involved."
The lawyer reveals Aboudihaj's husband, who does not live in Los Angeles, did not hear about the death of his wife from authorities, but read about the tragedy on the Internet.
Sayed adds, "He tells me, `I'm here on my birthday alone because I don't have my family here.'"
