Still awaiting blood tests but considering there were already calls about him driving erratically it is tough to imagine he wasn't under the influence of something.

not sure of the laws in LA, but if Byk is right and CN is "in tight" he needs to thanks his lucky stars...

RIP to the lady and her dog.

I thank God everyday there was no one else involved in my accident. Had I killed someone...no way I could have lived with myself...I would have gone insane, no doubt.

Kev,

It happened in AK.. By 'in tight' I mean he's in big trouble.. I don't believe he's got anything to be thankful about.

I hang out with some guys who've know him and have horse's with him. When I went to Oaklawn this past year he'd have a few beers with us if he didn't have anymore horses running that afternoon. Never seen him drunk but he'd put a few back and not act drunk or anything. Co Co is what they call him and I've heard them talk of some "good ole Boys" stories from L.A. Downs of years past so anything is possiable.

Quote from Aaron Hesz, co-host of the Southern California radio show "The Roger Stein show"

"The rumor came out this morning, a PROMINENT trainer reported to a PROMINENT West Coast jockey agent that Cole Norman had committed suicide. It is now reported he had O.D'ed, but was found and saved.


It also is speculated that in the aforementioned car accident, the woman killed (Virgina Heath) was a relative of former president Bill Clinton."

Before, during or after the car wreck? My boy the Breadman hasn't said anything to the such and he's a ear to the basckstreach there. Word on the backstreach is he's clean but who knows for sure?
