"I still struggle with the 'Why?'... I still replay it in my head."
Nineteen years ago, Beverly Hills 90210 actress Rebecca Gayheart was driving through Los Angeles in a friend’s Jeep Cherokee when she struck a nine-year-old boy as he crossed the road on his way home from school.

I'm confused by this accident. Obviously this article doesn't go into a lot of detail about the actual accident but I'm confused by how it was her fault? The boy was jaywalking and she couldn't have seen him due to the traffic ahead?
I understand why she feels upset etc however being charged with vehicular manslaughter seems a bit bloody rich.
Well vehicular manslaughter is just driving causing death. She didn't get charged with reckless driving. It probably could be argued that she should have driven cautiously if the traffic next to her was stopped for no apparent reason.
