22 Apr 2010I told you yesterday about Heather Locklear getting arrested for a hit-and-run accident that reportedly occurred over the weekend. Now TMZ is reporting that Heather is unlikely to actually face charges.
Our law enforcement sources say cops don't have the ammo to prove Heather was driving the car in question. Here's what we know:
- Cops went to the guard shack last Saturday at Heather's development and the guard on duty said he saw a BMW with right wheel well damage that was consistent with the accident.
- Cops checked the surveillance video which shows the BMW going into the complex hours after the incident but the driver can't be ID'd.
- One of the investigating deputies picked up a piece of plastic at the scene and it matched a piece missing from Heather's car.
- Sources say as of now there is "nothing approaching proof beyond a reasonable doubt" that Heather drove the car that hit the sign, making it "extremely unlikely" prosecutors will file charges.
And there's this -- the "Ghostbusters" defense. Even if there were proof that Heather hit a "no parking" sign, who's she gonna call at 4 AM on a Saturday? It's not like hitting a car where you leave a note for the owner -- who leaves a note on a "no parking" sign?
I'm sad to even see her in this situation, but how does it sound to you: fair or a case of celebrity justice?
