Have cousins in Houston. I remember during that time there were rumors about an incident where an Oilers player was involved in an auto accident where his teammate was killed. That player then shot himself in the head right there at the scene.
The rumors where that the first player was driving while his teammate had his head in his lap. He crashed on a highway overpass, and the player with his head down was thrown from the car, and landed 40 feet below. The driver had his penis bitten off by the guy that was thrown from the car, that is why he shot himself in the head at the scene.
I just read the NY Slimes article on the incident, and it said nothing about the guy who committed suicide having ANY injury other than the gunshot wound.
Gee, the media wouldn’t COVER UP THE TRUTH, would they???
I wonder if autopsy reports are available from back then.
