Caitlyn Jenner Claims — Paparazzi Made Me Kill

Caitlyn Jenner was partying with The Prince of Brunei this week — but she was also planning a royal lawsuit to shift the blame from her own driving in a fatal car crash! The transgendered athlete was out in London as her attorneys filed documents accusing photographers of being "Stalker Defendants" who caused her to kill an elderly widow!

The accident occurred in February 2015, shortly after Caitlyn had announced her transition from being Olympic athlete Bruce Jenner. Caitlyn rear-ended Kim Howe's car during a Malibu traffic accident — sending the woman into traffic, where her car was hit in a fatal crash.

Caitlyn's already settled a lawsuit by Jessica Steindorff, another driver who had stopped abruptly two cars ahead of Caitlyn — but the new suit also blames Steindorff for the accident. Caitlyn is claiming that Steindorff was on her cellphone at the time of the accident, and was also driving with a suspended license. (The damage to the front of Caitlyn's Cadillac Escalade SUV is seen here.)

The court documents also say that photographers following Caitlyn's car were also to blame: "As a direct consequence and result of this stalking, harassing and distracting conduct, [Caitlyn] was visually distracted, and the negligence and reckless conduct of the Stalker Defendants did contribute to the cause of an accident where seconds and split seconds mattered."

Caitlyn seemed carefree while out with '80s "Dynasty" star Stephanie Beacham, but the court documents seem to anticipate further lawsuits from the dead woman's family. Caitlyn's attorneys want the pursuing photographers to share responsibility for any liability that she might face from the accident.
