She crashed her car into a house and the house burned down. She is in a coma and bloodwork says she supposedly had foreign substances in her system.

At least three days ago.

She crashed into a garage building first. People came to help her and she drove off and then crashed into a house. She had been drinking wine before. But apparently the tests came back as cocaine.

Very bizarre.

I didnt see the reports till today. Didn’t seeit on bbi since charges were upgraded to felony.

I hope she recovers from this.
it was last Friday, and it's certainly been in the news, but  
Del Shofner : 8/11/2022 6:24 pm : link
I think the news today is that she's now facing felony charges based on how her bloodwork came back...
And...  
It's a New Day : 8/11/2022 6:28 pm : link
She actually crashed into TWO cars, the second one at a very high rate of speed. Reckless doesn't even begin to describe how bad this was...

According to the news wires she's not expected to survive. The smoke inhalation and burns are bad
Its a shame.  
Ron from Ninerland : 8/11/2022 6:34 pm : link
She was an underrated actress back in the day. Among other things she played Johnny Depp's wife in Donnie Brasco. Unfortunately she'll only be remembered for this incident and her relationship with Ellen Degeneres

Like 20 years ago or so didn’t she walk into some strangers home naked declaring she was a god or something? I feel like this could be part of those issues based on the description.

Yeah, she's had mental health issues. I feel bad for her. Nobody deserves that. And she's supposedly in very critical condition with severe burns. She'll probably die. Nobody deserves to go that way, either. Really sad.

Yea, if reports are true and she evaded help and caused further damage I don’t know how much sympathy I’d have for her. Especially if she was drugged out and being irresponsible. Of course you don’t want anyone to suffer a horrible death, but reports don’t sound good.

Her car can be seen speeding towards the house that burned down through a ring door bell which recorded her going by. This video is available on google by various sources.
She almost hit a pedestrian too  
Vanzetti : 8/11/2022 8:54 pm : link
Why feel sorry for her? because she is a celebrity? It's just lucky she did not kill people on the road or in the house. She left the scene of an accident. Totally reckless and did not give a crap.

People can feel bad

for someone on their death bad just out of humanity. I don't, but people can.

And at the same time they can also fault that person for the harm they did to the victims and feel worse for them.

Why? Because very few people deserve to die like that. I think it’s fine to think if someone had to die at least it was the one who was reckless and what was at fault. But from what I’ve read she lost consciousness shortly after the crash which means she quite possibly was awake while being burned. I personally don’t feel bad that she is going to die because she is the cause of it and at least nobody else got killed, but I do feel sorry if she had to suffer like that. It sucks someone lost all their personal stuff but it’s just stuff not lives or well being. And I’m pretty sure when all is said and done they will be well compensated for it

No matter what, it is  
section125 : 8/12/2022 5:31 am : link
sad both for her and the lady whose house burned down.

Just read they are checking to see if any of her organs can be saved for transplant. I read she had severe lung damage from smoke and heat caused by the fire - awful.

Tox report said cocaine, but she had been seen drinking wine and vodka. Her actions seemed more like drunk, than coked up.

So the person to feel sorry for is the one who lost her personal possessions, not the one who is in a coma with severe burns across her body and likely to die? Because your sorrow is such a limited commodity that you can't feel sorry for both of them so you have to choose one or the other and you choose the one who survived without a scratch on her body? Interesting. Does it make me fortunate that I have the room in my heart to feel sorry for both of them or does that make me weak? And does it make me a fool because the bulk of my sorrow is directed at the one on her deathbed regardless of where the fault for the incident lies? These are just some of the questions that your comment inspired.
Yeah, I don't get the sympathy for the person who caused this problem.

What if I told you that the woman who lost her house was a Nazi-sympathizing child molester who made her living steeling from charities and that Anne Heche was a philanthropist who tragically suffered with mental health issues that were passed on genetically from her parents who abused her? The truth is we know nothing about either of these individuals and shouldn't be judging either one. And sympathy is not a zero sum game, we can be sympathetic to the plight of both women.
Nothing wrong with having sympathy for all involved

Speaking for myself, the person I feel sorry for is the innocent victim who lost a tremendous amount due to someone else's recklessness. Someone who recklessly endangered innocent lives is not deserving of sympathy in my opinion. It is truly a miracle no innocent people were injured or killed, and I think if you're behaving in a manner that requires a miracle not to kill people, you're not a sympathetic figure. My sympathy's not a limited commodity, but that doesn't mean people get it when they don't deserve it. (Tbat's not to say it's good that she died - certainly it's sad, especially for her loved ones. But she put people's lives at risk, imo it's a blessing hers is the only one that was lost).

I don't know how many people in this world can say they've never done something that could endanger the lives of others (everyone who's ever smoked a cigarette in public has endangered innocent lives). I don't see why you can't be highly critical of someone's behavior and at the same time be sympathetic to the fate they've suffered.
Quote:

It was truly not a miracle that no innocent people were injured. You need to look up the word in a dictionary. While it's true the damage did not reach the worst case scenario, it's also true that the incident could've just as easily ended with her ramming the car into a tree, with no property damage other than the car, and Heche escaping with only minor bruises, the loss of her driving license, and maybe some prison time.

If you believe it's sad she died aren't you being sympathetic?
Quote:

It's not like she set out to harm anyone. She was obviously a mentally unstable person, likely based in part on either her genetics or upbringing. I save my lack of sympathy for those whose purely selfish actions were made with the full knowledge that innocent lives would be lost or ruined. A mentally ill woman who mixes booze and blow and gets behind the wheel is deserving of both my criticism and sympathy, especially given that she was the only one who suffered bodily harm (and did so in such a horrific manner). I'm also sympathetic to the woman whose life was turned upside down by Heche's irresponsible and reckless actions, but I suspect the crowd funding will make her financially whole again (and then some) and my understanding is that she was able to save from the fire the items that had sentimental value. I could be wrong about that.
How..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 8/12/2022 4:02 pm : link
do you know if she set out to harm someone or not? She was going 90 mph in a residential area and already had smashed into a few things prior to driving into a house. Sure sound like harming others could possibly have been part of the plan - at the very least, she was being dangerous to the general public in that area.

If this was Anne Smith, people would be ripping her to shreds for being careless and destructive to herself and others. because it is Anne Heche, we get glowing writeups about her legacy.

It was a terrible event that happened that was the fault of Anne Heche. You can have empathy for her death and still realize she's fully responsible for what happened to the unfortunate people who crossed her path that day, and frankly, her body of work means shit right now.
This gets on a bigger principle.  
Big Al : 8/12/2022 4:06 pm : link
In your real personal life, can you forgive someone who you believe has wronged you. One of the biggest of many faults that Mrs. Big Al say I have is I hold grudges and cannot get past it. I agree that it is good for everyone involved if you have the ability to forgive. I am a smaller person for having trouble doing this. Milton seems to speak for the quality of forgiving (although we can’t know here whether he actually has this quality in personal circumstances).

Of course, there are other factors. Should you forgive even if the other party shows no remorse? Can you forgive someone whose sin is against someone else? That heads into certain religious principles.

In any case, yes someone can say anything here to show individually what a good person you are and it may be for show, but the actual statement is a positive for mental health.

I also said "child molester"--is being a Nazi sympathizer worse than child molester? I guess I could've limited it to "cheats on her taxes" and "litters" but the point was simply that we don't know either of the individuals and the sum total of their pluses and minuses as human beings. If one were to believe in such a thing as the pearly gates to heaven, it is not this singular incident which will determine either woman's entry (how's that for ridiculous platitudes!?), so why even bring up which of the two is most deserving of sympathy? It's not a competition and if it were, the "winner" would not be decided by this one moment that connects them. That was my point and I used extremes to demonstrate how far wrong one can be when they presume to judge those they hardly know.
