WRONGFUL DEATH SUIT AGAINST BRANDY SETTLED: Singer to pay $300,000 each to children of woman killed.(June 4, 2009)
*A settlement has been reached in the wrongful-death lawsuit brought against Brandy on behalf of the children of the woman killed in her December 2006 multi-car collision.
According to documents obtained by E! News, the kids—Mrwan and Kareem Mohamed—will each receive $300,000. The boys, who were then 15 and 11, were in the family's Toyota Corolla when it was struck by Brandy's Land Rover, killing their mother, Awatef Aboudihaj. Still pending are three other suits filed against the artist: one by the victim's husband and the boys' father, Marouane Hdidou, who has turned down a $1.2 million settlement offer; another $50 million claim by Aboudihaj's parents; and a third by another man, Donald Lite, who sustained "serious and permanent injuries" in the smashup. Brandy, meanwhile, has sued another motorist involved in the crash, accusing Mallory Ham of negligence and blaming her for causing the chain-reaction pileup. The California Highway Patrol recommended a misdemeanor manslaughter charge be brought against the singer-actress, but prosecutors opted not to press charges due to lack of evidence.
