Re: Eric Dane & Rebecca Gayheart
I can never look past the fact that she killed a little boy...
from wikipedia
On 13 June 2001, Gayheart struck and killed nine-year-old Jorge Cruz Jr. as he crossed a Los Angeles-area street. According to the police report, the child was walking home from school and crossed the street. While several cars stopped to let him go, Gayheart swerved around them and into a two-way left-turn lane, striking the boy. Her attorney, Steven Lerman, subsequently admitted Gayheart had been using a cell phone during impact.[1]
Cruz died the next day at Los Angeles Children's Hospital. His parents, Jorge Cruz and Silvia Martinez, filed a wrongful-death lawsuit on August 6 2001 against her and Gayheart eventually paid for Cruz's hospital and funeral expenses. On November 27 2001, she pleaded no contest to vehicular manslaughter. She was sentenced to three years probation, a one-year suspension of her license, a $2,800 fine, and 750 hours of community service. She was also ordered to make a public-service announcement.

I remember this...it hardly seems like enough punishment for killing someone. I wonder how she lives with herself...
ETA: For all I know, she's haunted every day by what she did and is miserable but nevertheless, I can't imagine how she can live with it and continue to do her vapid celebrity stuff

Re: Eric Dane & Rebecca Gayheart
I saw her recently on an episode of CSI, I think. She looked awful. She did not age well and that "cute" mole she had has sagged down to her jawline.

Re: Eric Dane & Rebecca Gayheart
I had never heard that story. Wow... You're right, you can't look at her the same after that. And no jail time seems ridiculous for killing a child.
