Caitlyn Jenner will not be charged in the February car wreck that left a woman dead.

The Los Angeles district attorney decided that there is not enough evidence to charge Jenner with manslaughter or a misdemeanor and that the office “cannot prove beyond a reasonable doubt” that her “conduct was unreasonable,” according to court papers obtained by PEOPLE.

“We believed from the start that a thorough and objective investigation would clear Caitlyn of any criminal wrongdoing,” Jenner’s attorney Blair Berk says in a statement to PEOPLE. “We are heartened the District Attorney has agreed that even a misdemeanor charge would be inappropriate. A traffic accident, however devastating and heartbreaking when a life is lost, is not necessarily a criminal matter.”

There was a lot of back and forth in the media if she would be and should be charged and if she will face prison time. The unfortunate accident killed Kimberly Howe and her stepchildren are suing Jenner for wrongful death.

Jenner stated that she remembers very little from the accident. She told Matt Lauer at the Today Show that, “I remember it happening and that’s about it,” she said. “A tragedy like this, you’ll never get over it. You just learn to live with it the best you possibly can.”
