Stewart-Ward investigation 'finishing up' but UPDATE: The Ontario County (N.Y.) Sheriff's Department is in the final stages of its investigation into the death of Kevin Ward Jr., but there is no timetable yet for its completion, a department spokesperson told FOXSports.com Monday morning. Officer Nathaniel Ross, the OCPD's Senior Communications Officer, said Monday morning that the police are "finishing up" the Ward investigation. Asked if there was a timetable for when it would be completed and when the findings would be made public, Ross said, "Not that I'm aware of." The investigation will determine whether or not Stewart will face any criminal charges. Regardless of the outcome of the police findings, Stewart potentially could face civil liability.(FoxSports), see all the past news about the accident and Stewart on the #14 Team News and Links page.(8-25-2014)
UPDATE: As of 9:00am/et Thursday [August 28] morning, the Ontario County (N.Y.) Sheriff's Department does not plan to release any new information Thursday on its investigation into the death of Kevin Ward Jr., a department representative told FOXSports.com. Meanwhile, a spokesman for Stewart-Haas Racing said if there is an update Thursday on who will drive the #14 SHR Chevy at Atlanta Motor Speedway this weekend, that announcement would come late this afternoon. Tony Stewart has missed the last three races following an accident that claimed Ward's life in a sprint car race in northern New York.(FoxSports)(8-24-2014)
Nothing on Jayski yet, Race Hub has it as lead story, Mama got a txt from NASCAR
Speculation is that a settlement has already been made with the Ward Family (via TV “analyst”)
Press Conference set for Friday at AMS Media Center.
W00T!!!
We have 8 or 10 home ‘groan’ fires here. There will be Smoke at the races soon...
I’d like to know when the authorities are going to release the results of the investigation. I wouldn’t trade places w/Tony for a large pot of gold. Even if he continues to race and win a few he’ll always have that stigma of the incident ahead of his accomplishments.
There’s a fine line between having and maintaing that “edge” needed to win (several) races vs those who don’t. I doubt if Tony will race passively but I’d be surprised if he still has that “edge”.
