Arrest Made in Fatal Hit-and-Run of Reality Star Sara Burack
SOUTHAMPTON— Amanda Kempton, a 32-year-old woman from Virginia, was arrested on Friday in connection with the hit-and-run that resulted in the death of reality star and real estate agent Sara Burack. The Southampton Town Police Department confirmed the arrest, with Kempton facing charges for leaving the scene of a motor vehicle accident, a class D felony in New York which could carry a sentence of up to four years in prison.
Burack, known for her roles in Netflix’s "Million Dollar Beach House" and HBO Max’s "Selling the Hamptons," was struck by a vehicle on June 19 near the Villa Paul Restaurant on Montauk Highway. She was found unconscious at the scene and later transported to Stony Brook University Hospital, where she tragically succumbed to her injuries. According to a close family friend, Burack suffered a fractured skull, brain bleeds, and experienced cardiac arrest before being placed on life support.
As a well-regarded realtor at NestSeekers International, Burack’s dedication extended beyond real estate; she was heavily involved in philanthropic efforts, co-chairing charity galas in New York City. Friends and colleagues remembered her as a compassionate and hard-working individual who made a significant impact on those around her.
"She was just a great person," shared a colleague, emphasizing that Burack’s commitment to her career and charitable causes defined her life.
"Hearts are heavy with her loss." The investigation continues, and Kempton is scheduled for arraignment.
