31. 4. Of course these moochers are gonna sue. They know that Brandy is rich! If it were some poor ass Arab they wouldn't be suing, for real. You can bet some Jew lawyer tracked them down and said you got a case! What a bunch of crap! It's like OJ having to pay when he was proven innocent, that's just f***ing bullsh*t!! I hope Brandy fights this suit and wins! I will never stop my fight against RACISM! NO JUSTICE, NO PEACE!!!

32. LOL. They claim they are in mourning and want an apology but they have time to consult with an attorney before they even bury her? I feel no sympathy for them. F*cking foreign money grubbers. She drove a piece of sh*t and now the husband'll be in a tricked out Escalade with a beotch by his side before you can say Awatef Aboudihaj. And how DO you say that anyway???

33. You drive, you accept responsibility for your actions. And this is why you have to have insurance, a safety inspected vehicle, to be personally tested and know the rules and then can get a license or permission to drive, or have that permission rejected.

34. Brandy should be charged like anyone else, there is no grey area here. My sympathy to all the families (including Brandy's). Everyone is hurting here but the attorneys will take care of that. Was Brandy's distraction really caused by a cell phone? Will we really ever know????

36. Farrah you are the most racist person on here. You are racist, prejudice and you are also a hypocrite. You say "no justice, no peace" but feel that this family should not find justice in prosecuting the PERSON who was responsible for killing their child. Why don't you give this family the opportunity to gain their own peace through the court's justice and get off of your own soap box, you sound like a rambeling idiot!

38. Why is this news? If anyone else lost a family member in an accident like this (driver speeding & not paying attention) regardless of who the driver was, you would sue. I know many families that have lost family members or had family members dismembered or paralyzed. What are you going to do? You are going to sue. If it was her fault, then she should have to pay up. Not any more than the average Joe, but she should have to pay up.

39. Kel, no money can replace a person or make someone feel better.
But it sure doesn't stop anyone from trying to get the big bucks.

42. You people are so quick to say that Brandy should serve time and be sued but in reality this could happen to anyone. How many times have you not paid attention while driving and just barely missed hitting the car in front of you? Yes it is sad that this woman died but it was an accident.

43. LOL at Jimmy... so true on some many levels. But she should pay the price even if it was an accident. Paying them won't bring her back but it was ease the pain for a while.

44. It's horrible what happened to that woman. I'm sure Brandy feels almost as bad as the family of the deceased. I think the right course of action is being taken by the family. No jail time will be served.

Brandy, apologize to the family directly, take care of the funeral expenses, pay their pain and suffering fees and begin the healing process. Don't let societies misguided judgements make you feel worse than you already do. I pray for that family and for you. The Lord knows you are heartbroken becasue of this, and that you didn't intend for this to happen.

45. Hang in ther Brand-ya, it will be alright. Oh, and remember: the brake's on the left and the gas is on the right. Say it with me: "Brake's on the left and the gas is on the right."
