Caitlyn Jenner has finally broken her silence about the February car crash she was involved in, on California’s Pacific Coast Highway that claimed the life of another woman.
In an interview with Matt Lauer on TODAY Show, Caitlyn admitted her fears over possibly being sent to Los Angeles Men’s County Jail should she be charged with misdemeanor manslaughter, but could not say much about the crash as she is involved in lawsuit.
“I remember it very little, I remember it happening and that’s about it. A tragedy like this, you’ll never get over it. You just learn to live with it the best you possibly can.” Caitlyn told Matt.
Prosecutors are currently deciding whether or not to charge Caitlyn in connection with the fatal accident, though legal experts doubt she would be sent to jail if she were found guilty, the LA Times reports.
The 65-year-old also disproved claims that she was speeding during the accident: “I was under the speed limit, I was going 46 in a 50 – my air bag didn’t even go off”.
She further told Lauer that her team is making sure that if she does end up getting sentenced to jail time, it won’t be in a men’s correctional facility.
“The media wants that picture, don’t they,” Jenner said. “That is the worst case scenario. I will say the men’s county jail, it is an enormous problem that they would put trans women in a men’s county jail.”
