Now, the 39-year-old faces 10 to 30 years behind bars for the manslaughter charge and five to 10 years for the assault by auto charge.

Blair Zwillman, Amy’s attorney, told TMZ he was “surprised” by the aggravated manslaughter charge saying, “I don’t believe it is supported by the law or the facts and I think it constitutes over-reaching by the prosecutor’s office.”
