SOMERVILLE, N.J. -- A former "Melrose Place" actress who was drunk when her SUV plowed into a car and killed a woman was sentenced Thursday to three years in prison, infuriating the victim's relatives, who had hoped for the 10-year maximum.
"What a travesty!" the victim's husband, Fred Seeman, yelled after the sentence was read.
"This is not justice," the victim's 26-year-old son, Ford Seeman, told the judge before he stormed out of the courtroom.

A jury in November convicted Amy Locane-Bovenizer of vehicular homicide in the 2010 death of 60-year-old Helene Seeman in Montgomery Township.
Locane-Bovenizer will be eligible for parole after 2 1/2 years and will be credited the 81 days she has already served. She also had her license suspended for five years and will be on probation for three years after her release. She must pay several thousand dollars in fines.

Locane-Bovenizer, who didn't testify at the trial, appeared in 13 episodes of TV's "Melrose Place" and in movies including "Cry-Baby," "School Ties" and "Secretary."
Prosecutors say she was driving with a blood-alcohol level nearly three times the legal limit when her SUV slammed into a Mercury Milan driven by Fred Seeman as he was turning into his driveway. Fred Seeman's wife, Helene, was killed, and he was seriously injured.

During the trial, the defense argued that Fred Seeman was making a slow turn, which contributed to the crash. They maintained that it was an accident, not a crime.
The defense also shifted blame to a third motorist who they say distracted the actress by honking at her and chasing her after being rear-ended. They said the chase led Locane-Bovenizer to drive 20 miles over the speed limit on a dark two-lane road.
The judge lowered the maximum sentence citing the hardship on Locane-Bovenizer's two young children. One has a serious medical and mental disability. The defense went into detail about how her sick child was deteriorating physically and psychologically since the actress' incarceration and about how a prolonged sentence would make it worse.
"I'm just glad her little girls will have their mother back soon," Locane-Bovenizer's mother, Helen Locane, said as she walked out of the courtroom.

Meet 19-year-old Michael Maxwell of Palm Bay, Fla. He decided to roll up on a house with his boys Wednesday morning with the intent to rob the place. But he and his crew were met with brute force. The residents of the home, kicked, beat and tased Maxwell to submission until the cops arrived. They took him to a local hospital where he was treated for his injuries. He was charged with one count of home invasion robbery with a firearm or deadly weapon and four counts of battery. This mugshot should be posted around the area for all would-be invaders to know what can happen to them if they try to roll up on an innocent person's home with some foolishness.

ANother that hits close to home and is making national news

CHAMBERSBURG, Pa. Investigators are listening closely to a 911 call made before a man was shot to death in an apparent road rage incident on Interstate 81 in Franklin County early Saturday.
Timothy Davison, 28, was driving home to Poland, Maine after visiting family over the holidays when he called 911 just after 2 a.m. to report that a Ford Ranger-style truck was following him in the northbound lanes just past the Maryland line.
Davidson said someone in the truck was firing shots, and operators listened as his SUV was rammed before it spun out of control and became disabled in the median, according to police.
Investigators said the unknown person got out of the truck, approached Davison and fired several rounds into his silver 2001 Mitsubishi Montero.
Davison died of his injuries at York Hospital.
Authorities believe the shooting was a random act and that Davison did not know his killer.
Police also are trying to determine whether the incident is connected to another suspected road rage shooting in York County seven hours earlier.
Carroll Township police said several shots were fired into an occupied vehicle in the 100 block of North York Road in Monaghan Township at around 6:45 p.m. Friday.
The victim in that case reported that his truck was recklessly followed by a black Nissan pickup truck which then pulled next to him before someone in it fired several shots, police said.
One of the rounds narrowly missed the victim's head and was found near the head rest, police said.

More corrupt politicans
The politician, who allegedly accepted more than $20,000 in bribes, told one associated that anyone who snitched on him "would go to the cemetery," prosecutors said Tuesday

Bronx Assemblyman Eric Stevenson knew he was in grave danger when he took more than $20,000 in bribes from a gang of crooked businessmen — so the Democrat threatened to put anyone who crossed him in “the cemetery,” prosecutors told jurors Tuesday.
Stevenson told an associate that if someone tried to bring him down by secretly recording his rotten deeds, “that person would go to the cemetery,” the feds said during opening statements in the politician’s federal corruption trial.
But as it turned out, his confidant was in fact wearing a wire, and Stevenson’s threat was caught on tape, Assistant U.S. Attorney Brian Jacobs said in Manhattan Federal Court.

Stevenson is accused of accepting cash payments in exchange for helping four senior center developers with their business in the Bronx.
Stevenson introduced legislation in Albany to block additional adult day care centers from opening in an attempt to freeze out competing developers, the feds claim.
He even went to buy a Jaguar the day after taking a $10,000 bribe, they said.
“As he lined his pockets, he betrayed the people of New York,” Jacobs said.
But Stevenson’s lawyer, Muhammad Bashir, said the feds’ case rests on the testimony of Sigfredo Gonzalez, who Bashir said is a “bad man … controlling the camera, controlling the table over there,” with a nod toward the prosecution.

That sounds closer, but I was thinking closer to a couple years.
