Quote:Prosecutors say they have declined to charge Caitlyn Jenner in fatal car crash in California.

"We believed from the start that a thorough and objective investigation would clear Caitlyn of any criminal wrongdoing," said Blair Berk, Jenner's attorney, said in a statement to the Associated Press. "We are heartened the district attorney has agreed that even a misdemeanor charge would be inappropriate. A traffic accident, however devastating and heartbreaking when a life is lost, is not necessarily a criminal matter.

In February, Jenner was hauling an off-road vehicle on a trailer behind her Cadillac Escalade when she steered to avoid cars slowing for a traffic light in front of her on the Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu.

Jenner's SUV rear-ended two cars, pushing the Lexus into oncoming traffic and also hitting a Prius. The Lexus driver, 69-year-old Kim Howe, was killed when her car was struck head-on by a Hummer. Investigators had found that Jenner was driving "unsafe for the prevailing road conditions." She faced up to a year in country jail if convicted of vehicular manslaughter.

The fatal crash occurred months before Caitlyn Jenner's transition.
