‘Melrose Place’ star Amy Locane ordered to astounding 4th sentencing for 2010 DWI case

Amy Locane, the former “Melrose Place” star who has long completed her prison sentence for a DWI death might be heading back behind bars for the same case.

The 48-year-old actress killed New Jersey woman Helene Seeman and seriously wounded her husband, Fred, in a horrific 2010 collision as the couple was slowly turning into their driveway. Locane slammed into their slow-moving vehicle at 53 mph.

Locane would later be convicted for vehicular manslaughter. Despite prosecutors demanding she be jailed for seven years, the trial judge leniently ordered her to serve three years.

Although an appeals court ruled that the judge had misapplied the law, no extra jail time was tacked on at her resentencing.

On Wednesday, a judge rejected Locane’s contention that sentencing her again would violate her double jeopardy protections, reported The Associated Press. The court ruled that a different judge incorrectly resentenced her in 2019, and sent the case back for yet another sentencing.

Now, her attorney vows to appeal to the New Jersey Supreme Court.

“Ms. Locane has been out of prison for five years, and it’s been two years since she completed parole,” explained lawyer James Wronko. “During this entire time she has done everything they’ve asked her to do, and it’s difficult to explain to her two girls why five years later Mommy is being put back in prison.”

In 2017, Locane said the tragedy was a daily reminder of the grief she had inflicted.

“There hasn’t been a day that has gone by that I don’t think of Helene Seeman,” Locane told New Jersey Advance Media at the time. “I feel terrible for her family. I know that they are hurting. I know that they are grieving. I have said that I’m sorry over and over to them, but I feel like it falls on deaf ears.”

Locane’s big break came in 1990 when she starred opposite Johnny Depp in John Waters’ comedy “Cry-Baby.” She appeared in two early 1990s films featuring Brendan Fraser — “School Ties” and “Airheads” — before playing Jessica Lange’s daughter in 1994′s “Blue Sky.”

She was an original cast member of the Fox soaper “Melrose Place” that debuted in 1992 but quit the show after 13 episodes, according to IMDb.
