Caitlyn Jenner will not be charged in fatal car crash - prosecutors
- 9 years ago
Former Olympic champion and reality TV star Caitlyn Jenner will not be charged in connection with a crash in Malibu earlier this year that killed a 69-year-old woman, Los Angeles prosecutors said on Wednesday.
Based on the facts in the case, prosecutors lacked evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that Jenner's conduct was unreasonable, according to documents provided by Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office.
"We believed from the start that a thorough and objective investigation would clear Caitlyn of any criminal wrongdoing.
We are heartened the District Attorney has agreed that even a misdemeanor charge would be inappropriate," Jenner's attorney, Blair Berk, said in a written statement.
