The L.A. County D.A. now has the Caitlyn Jenner case, and
sources connected to the office tell TMZ the initial
sentiment is that the collision was a tragic accident but not
criminal. Our sources say the attorneys in the Major
Crimes unit which reviewed the L.A. County Sheriff's Dept.
161-page report thought it was relevant Jenner braked
several seconds before impact in an attempt to avoid hitting
a Lexus on PCH in February ... a collision that killed the
Lexus driver. The D.A. could file misdemeanor vehicular
manslaughter charges because Jenner violated the speed
law by not slowing down quickly enough. But the D.A.
doesn't automatically file criminal charges because a driver
was inattentive. It usually has to be more than simple
negligence to trigger a prosecution. It's interesting ... the
D.A. did not charge an L.A. County Sheriff's deputy who
was typing on his patrol car computer last year and drifted
into a bike lane killing a man, so it seems unlikely they'd file
against Jenner, who was not on the phone or texting. We're
told the D.A. should make a decision within a week.
