"U.S. reality TV star Caitlyn Jenner, who is being investigated in connection with a fatal California car crash earlier this year, defended herself on Wednesday and expressed concern over county jails that place transgender people with the opposite sex.

Jenner, who transitioned to being a woman this year and at the time of the crash was known as Bruce, was driving a Cadillac Escalade in the February crash that killed one woman and injured another.

Los Angeles County authorities are considering misdemeanor manslaughter charges against Jenner and have said speed was a factor in the collision, according to media reports last month. Such a charge could carry a one-year prison sentence, according to NBC."

They must have gotten this from the Today show interview she did on the golf course with Matt Lauer that was broadcast this morning. I've heard other reports that say since she has no priors, she probably won't have to go to jail. At least I hope not!
