Anne Heche was recently involved a catastrophic vehicle accident in Los Angeles that left her brain dead, which is how death is defined in California, while being on life support pending an organ donor review. Due to the current developments, law enforcement has paused its investigation into the accident.
“As of today, no further investigative attempts in this matter will be conducted,” the Los Angeles Police Department said in a statement obtained by People. “Any information or documents that were sought previously to this turn of events will still be gathered and included in the overall investigation as a matter of formality.” We do not present for trial when a person accused of a crime dies.

“We have lost a brilliant light, a kind and joyous person, a loving mother, and a devoted friend,” according to the statement. “Anne will be greatly missed, but her gorgeous boys, legendary body of work, and impassioned activism will continue on.” Her fearlessness in always speaking her truth and promoting her message of love and acceptance will have a long-lasting influence.”
