According to documents obtained by The Blast, Lynne Mishele claims she and her pet nearly lost their lives when Heche’s Mini Cooper drove through her home on August 5. Mishele shared that Heche’s vehicle “went across the front of his house and deep into the interior of his house. ” before it “stopped just a few paces” from her, her two dogs — Bree and Rueben — and her tortoise — Marley.
The plaintiff stated that “the sudden and terrifying explosion shook him,” adding that he had been “completely traumatized, incredibly shocked by the loud noise, plagued by nightmares and flashbacks of the incident, afraid to walk outside, and, in above. that, without a place to live.”
As it turns out, Heche’s car powers through “the front wall and drives through the living room, kitchen, home office and master bedroom closet” before entering his “laundry/storage room.”
Mishele further mentioned that she had “a lifetime of personal possessions destroyed in the fire,” most of which “include tokens and irreplaceable souvenirs from her late parents, who died 44 days apart in 2020.” He then referred to fentanyl and cocaine detected in the late actor’s system at the time of the accident. Misele is seeking at least $2 million in damages.

You’ll recall that Heche — whose eldest son, Homer Laffoon, is the current special administrator of his estate — “passed out, in a coma,” shortly after crashing into Mishele’s home. The mother of two was trapped in her vehicle for 45 minutes as the building caught fire.
Although the Emmy Award winner never regained consciousness, she remained on life support until August 12, allowing medical officials to take some of her organs for donation. Heche’s official cause of death was heat injury and smoke inhalation. The Los Angeles County medical examiner also listed a sternum fracture from blunt force trauma as contributing to his death. His death was ruled an accident.
Mishele’s Neighbor Started GoFundMe To Help With Expenses
After losing her home, Mishele launched a GoFundMe to support herself and her pets, according to The Blast. He was helped by two of his neighbors — Jennifer Durand and Leslie Fingerhut — who explained on an online fundraising platform that he lost his Mar Vista home in a car accident.

The couple stated that the house had caught fire after a speeding car crashed into it. Although they never referred to Heche by name, it was clear who the statement was aimed at. In their words:
“Lynne and her family narrowly escaped physical injury, and for that we are very grateful. The house, however, was fully engulfed – with 59 firefighters taking 65 minutes to extinguish the flames – and was immediately red flagged by the LAFD, requiring Lynne to leave the place she loved.”
Durand and Fingerhut stated that even more devastating their neighbor “lost possessions, souvenirs, all equipment for his business including his laptop and iPad, all his clothes and basic needs, and all household items.”
However, Mishele was able to “pull some damaged sentimental items from the wreckage” with the help of several firefighters. Neighbors who helped described the victim as a “kind and generous” person who did not hesitate to “offer help to others.”
They finished by asking to “ask the community to come together and help Lynne start over. Please, please join us – 100% of the proceeds of this fundraiser go directly to Lynne Mishele.”
The fundraiser quickly caught the attention of several people who contributed as best they could. Some people like Alicia Gabriel, who donated, expressed their sadness that Mishele had gone through “this terrible moment.”
