Amy Locane-Bovenizer, 40, was convicted Tuesday of vehicular homicide in Superior Court in Somerville, N.J., for killing a woman in 2010 while driving drunk. The Trenton-raised Melrose Place star, whose husband, Mark Bovenizer, is a wine educator and proprietor of Community Liquors in Princeton, plowed her SUV into a car driven by Fred Seeman with his wife, Helene Seeman, 60, a passenger, in front of the couple's home in Montgomery Township in Somerset County, killing her and seriously injuring him. Locane faces up to 10 years in prison and must serve a minimum of 85 percent of that sentence without parole.
