Tiger Woods seriously injured in car crash

[KSB2424 3,148]

Something is reel fishy about this story..

 

where on earth did she find a golf club?

You do realize all this happened at a professional golfers house, not at an Applebees or something. But yeah, where on earth would Tigers Woods wife find a golf club at their house?

[wiffleball 4,790]

I'm not sure if it happened like that. Maybe it did. I think it was all handled by Tigers lawyer. I'm sure he has a good one.

 

Nope. Went down like I said. The lawyer didn't get involved until Sunday. Hell, they got pictures of the troopers showing up at his gate.

 

Most people - whether legally compelled to or not - are going to be going out of their way: "Yes, officer, I'm sorry, we were fighting, it was dark, whatever, I'm very sorry, I'll pay for the damage. Sorry to trouble you.."

 

 

Must be part of that whole "No Snitchin' Culture" they have.

So you saying two days later an alchohol test would work.

yeah, I guess you're right.

They couldn't have tested him at the scene.

On a Holiday like that, there's a ton of wasted alcohol running thru our water systems and sewars... once that hydrant opened, there was no accurate way to judge if the alcohol found was from Tiger or pouring our of the hydrant itself.

[peenie 1,916]

So, when does Tiger play the race card?

tiger doesn't have that option.

[KSB2424 3,148]

Most people

Tiger is not most people. Celebrity works two ways in cases like this. Sometimes it gets you out of things that really happened, and sometimes it gets you in to things that did not happen.

 

I can see where not talking fully would work either way.

[Patriotsfatboy1 1,432]

So, when does Tiger play the race card?

 

This is clearly a HATE CRIME!

[MedStudent 56]

I remember hearing a rumor that Tiger smoked a lot of pot at stanford. Another scenario: Tiger gets stoned out of his mind. Runs out of pot at 2 in the morning. Needs to go see his dealer. Hits the hydrant and tree. Hero Elin saves him from the car. Tiger lays on the ground mumbling bob marley tunes "Everythings gonna be alright".

[MedStudent 56]

tiger doesn't have that option.

 

So now that he cheats on his wife he is an asian motherfocker!

[peenie 1,916]

he can play the race card if he wants to and hope white guilt will turn the public's attention away from his alleged affair but black people won't give a fock about his cablinasian ass. i know i don't:

cablinasian

 

A term Tiger Woods himself made up as a justification to marry a white woman with less shame. It is a portmanteau of Caucasian, Black, American-Indian, and Asian, which is his ethnic make-up of a quarter Chinese, a quarter Thai, a quarter Black, an eighth Native American and an eighth Dutch. But regardless of all the aforementioned his father was black. He married white. He forgot about the time when they didn't allow him on the course in Georgia because he was black. So instead of coming to terms with reality, he became further delusional and invented said term to make himself feel better.

 

Tiger woods is a cablinasian sell-out. Tiger woods invented the term cablinasian so that he wouldn't have to come to terms with his racial identity.

He's a cannibal??

[tubby_mcgee 701]

Okay...how many other celebs have been in car accidents? (plenty).

 

How many made statements like this:

 

"This situation is my fault, and it's obviously embarrassing to my family and me. I'm human and I'm not perfect. I will certainly make sure this doesn't happen again. "

 

 

then later in the same statement, reiterate this:

 

 

"The only person responsible for the accident is me. "

 

 

"This incident has been stressful and very difficult for Elin, our family and me."

 

WTF? Stressful? Uhh-huh. It's stressful because he's worried about the cat getting out of the bag. Otherwise...fock...why would it be stressful? His life isn't in danger. I think he's got enough money to buy a new car. LOL. So what's with the stress?

 

Why would you mention how embarrassing it was? And how can he be "certain" it won't happen again?

 

And why does he think he is immune to questioning afterwards. LOL. If you or I crashed our car, and we told police "I don't want to talk about it...." would that be okay?

Exactly.

[patweisers44 848]

it Escaladed right into a focking hydrant. :rimshot:

 

He wont play the race card, he'll say its the cars fault.....golfers always blame the Caddy.

[wiffleball 4,790]

Its the cars fault.....golfer always blame the Caddy.

I thought the white guy carried the clubs?

ESPN is reporting that police are seeking a search warrant.

[NorthernVike 2,087]

tiger doesn't have that option.

Then why does Obama?

[peenie 1,916]

Then why does Obama?

because obama embraced his blackness (see his black wife).

[MedStudent 56]

ESPN is reporting that police are seeking a search warrant.

 

TMZ was reporting that 12 hours ago.

ETA - I checked espn and they are actually quoting TMZ. They obviously do not have any reporters working on this themselves.

[KSB2424 3,148]

Police want a search warrant.

For all the people who post from work this is a link to Lemon Party. Just scroll over the link. It appears we have an unoriginal child on our hands.

[NorthernVike 2,087]

So if a Mixed-breed marries a Black woman he is black. But if he marries a skinny ass white biotch he looses his right to be a brotha?

Apparently (per ESPN) its Florida law. He is only required to show them his license and proof of insurance and doesn't have to make a statement.

 

At this point, I don't understand what more the police need to know about. If he or his wife aren't pressing charges, I'm assuming he can pay for the damages and call it a day.

Celebrity works two ways. Sometimes celebs get away with stuff. In this case it is working against Tiger. Because he is famous and there is media pressure is your answer.

from what I read, I think if say, spousal abuse is occuring, then you don't have to have an agrieved complaintant.

According to TMZ:

 

Cops Pursue Warrant in Woods Case

 

Sources tell TMZ the Florida Highway Patrol is now focusing on obtaining a search warrant -- allowing them to seize medical records from the hospital that treated Tiger Woods -- in an attempt to determine if the wounds Woods sustained are consistent with a car accident or domestic violence.

 

We're told authorities believe they can show probable cause a crime was committed, a necessary step in obtaining a warrant.

 

One big piece of evidence showing probable cause ... sources tell us Tiger's wife, Elin Nordegren told FHP troopers she went looking for Tiger in a golf cart, came upon the accident and then used a golf club to break the window to gain entry. That's a very different story from what she first told Windemere cops shortly after the accident -- she never mentioned a golf cart. Nordegren told Windemere police she had walked out of her house, saw the crash, went back inside to get a golf club and returned to the vehicle.

 

TMZ has reviewed 21 photos from the scene -- no sign of any golf cart. But we just found another photo (below) from the scene, where you can see a golf cart in the foreground.

 

And there's more ... although alcohol was not involved, Tiger was in and out of consciousness and TMZ has already reported Tiger told a friend he was taking prescription meds for pain, which could be evidence of DUI. This, too, could constitute probable cause to obtain a warrant.

 

We're told the FHP is pursuing the search warrant option after getting shut down again Sunday in an attempt to interview Tiger and Elin and eyeball Tiger's wounds.

 

As we first reported, according to sources, Tiger told a friend Elin had attacked him after she confronted him with reported allegations he had cheated on her. We're told Tiger told the friend Elin then followed him out of the house and struck the moving vehicle with the golf club, causing him to get distracted and hit the hydrant.

 

If the FHP determines Elin attacked Tiger, we're told she could be arrested for domestic violence

 

TMZ is also reporting that Police want to see the surveillance video from Tiger's house. This could be another watergate.

I bet he's under the legal driving limit by now.

According to TMZ:

That would have been my only question. I wasn't sure if they could have already asked the hospital what was going on with him. That seems appropriate, but if he isn't required to give them a statement, then heel, I wouldn't give them a statement either.

The mistake that Tiger and his PR team are making, IMO, is by not talking to police and by turning them away three times, they are making the police look bad. Now the police may go the extra mile to get to the bottom of this. Had they just cooperated then the cops could be on their side. Now I am not so sure.

[KSB2424 3,148]

Tell that to the Duke Lacrosse guys.

Well I would agree, but I'm no lawyer and I'm assuming Tiger has a pretty good one.

[wiffleball 4,790]

..and those guys all gave statements to not only the police immediately, but also to 60 minutes and other outlets. Tigger? Not so much.

 

again, innocent people have nothing to hide.

They gave intial statements but as soon as it became tabloid news they all got lawyers and hushed up. They put out a satement like "We will let the legal system work through this and have no further comment". HTH

Which slut is deepthroat?

Yeah, and tell that to OJ too. He didn't want to talk to police and he turned out to be innocent.

Exactly. Good Point. Just because you listen to your lawyer and do not comment beyond your legal requirements on an incident does not mean you are either guilty or innocent. It means you are listening to your legal advice.

 

If you are innocent and the police want to take you downtown and question you about something illegal. Once they infer you had something to do with it, I suggest you stop talking immediatley and hire a lawyer. itsatip
