The California Highway Patrol has concluded it’s investigation into Brandy’s Dec. 30th pileup on the Los Angeles 405 and is recommending that the singer be charged with a misdemeanor count of vehicular manslaughter without gross negligence, according to CHP spokesman Leland Tang.

The CHP made its recommendation to the Los Angeles City Attorney’s office on Monday morning. Brandy, twenty-eight, could face one year in Los Angeles County Jail if charged and convicted.

“We know that Brandy’s at fault for the chain reaction of the collision,” says CHP spokesman Leland Tang. It will be up to the L.A City Attorney whether to file charges against the mother of one.

Brandy’s PR team could not be reached for comment.
