With so many people from the board being involved in racing, I wouldn't want a friend or aquaintence of his to see the title and think he died.

I think both of them already know

that was a good one.
Not to make light of the situation, but I don't follow Oaklawn and the other southern tracks he works at, so I have really don't know much about him.
Just thought it might lead to some people thinking the fatality was him.

I have to admit when i glanced at the headline in the DRF this morning that was my first thought....when I read it more carefully I realized I was wrong but I think it COULD have been worded differently...

Norman is "in tight".. This will likely be a vehicular homicide charge in short order. It also comes on the heels of a domestic incident that went largely unreported late last year.

Yeah, apparently people had already called in to the police to report his erratic driving before the accident occured.

So its blatantly obvious alcohol and or drugs were involved, much like the Frank Loabocetta incident last year. Sad story. Woman was in the wrong place at the wrong time and if she was driving at 86, she probably kept herself pretty healthy for that age. Just terrible stuff.

And her dog was in the car as well and died as a result of injuries.. It's a very sad incident..

It's a shame he didn't get help. Now people are suffering due to his problems.
