The actress allegedly struck another vehicle as it turned into a driveway in Montgomery, New Jersey in June, 2010, critically injuring the driver, Fred Seeman, and killing his wife, Helen, who was in the passenger's seat.
Locane was arrested after cops detected alcohol on her breath and she was later charged was aggravated manslaughter and assault by automobile.

The 40 year old also faces penalties on nine more motor vehicle offences, including driving under the influence and fleeing the scene of an accident, reports local publication The Star-Ledger.
