Former Melrose Place Actress Charged in DUI Death
Actress Amy Locane-Bovenizer was charged with second-degree vehicular homicide and third-degree assault by auto after an accident on Sunday, June 27 in Montgomery, New Jersey. Locane-Bovenizer was one of the original cast members of Melrose Place and played opposite Johnny Depp in Cry Baby.
According to law enforcement officers, Locane-Bovenizer was driving her SUV and hit the passenger side of another vehicle just after 9:00pm. A woman was killed and the driver was seriously injured. When police arrived, Locane-Bovenizer admitted having several glasses of wine before getting behind the wheel. She was arrested for drunken driving and taken to the hospital for a cut on her arm.
During the investigation, it was discovered Locane-Bovenizer was involved a hit-and-run just before the fatal accident when she allegedly rear-ended another vehicle at an intersection. She then allegedly fled the scene after the other driver attempted to contact police.
If Locane-Bovenizer is convicted, she faces five to ten years in state prison with 85% of the term served without parole due to New Jersey's No Early Release Act.
