Former "Melrose Place" actress Amy Locane was resentenced to eight years in prison for a 2010 drunk-driving crash that killed a woman in New Jersey.

SOMERVILLE – Former "Melrose Place" actress Amy Locane was resentenced to eight years in prison Thursday for a drunk-driving crash that killed a woman in Montgomery, New Jersey in 2010.

The sentence was handed down by Somerset County Superior Court Judge Angela Borkowski.

Defendant Amy Locane at her resentencing for a fatal 2010 auto accident inside Judge Kevin Shanahan's courtroom at the Somerset County Superior Courthouse in Somerville on February 15, 2019.

Wronko asked Borkowski to sentence Locane to two years in prison.

Locane's last sentencing was in February 2019 when she was sentenced to five years in state prison by Superior Court Judge Kevin Shanahan.

It was the fourth sentencing for Locane, the former actress who starred with Johnny Depp in “Cry-Baby” and came after an appellate court agreed with the Somerset County Prosecutor's Office that retired Judge Robert Reed's sentence should be modified.

The Somerset County Prosecutor's Office appealed the sentence

An appellate court decision called Locane's sentencing "excessively lenient." The appellate court ordered that she return to Superior Court for a new sentencing

The appellate court ruled that the third sentencing must be performed by a new judge because Reed, who presided over the trial and the first two sentencings, did not follow the appellate court's ruling after the Somerset County Prosecutor's Office successfully appealed the first sentencing as being too lenient
