Judge blocks evidence in Adenhart case
SANTA ANA, Calif. (AP) — The attorney for a man accused of killing Los Angeles Angels pitcher Nick Adenhart and two others in a drunken driving crash cannot introduce evidence that the driver of Adenhart’s car may also have been drinking.
Orange County Superior Court Judge Richard Toohey ruled Wednesday that the evidence is irrelevant in 23-year-old Andrew Gallo’s triple murder trial.
Defense attorney Jacqueline Goodman had argued that the woman driving with Adenhart was also negligent because she had an elevated blood-alcohol level and may have run the red light instead of Gallo.
Testing showed Courtney Stewart had a blood-alcohol content of .06. The legal limit for drivers under 21 is .05.
Adenhart, Stewart and another man were killed April 9, 2009.
WVU’s Pitt game uniforms are a nod to mine victims
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — For one game only, the West Virginia Mountaineers will forgo blue and gold.
For the long-running rivalry known as the Backyard Brawl — the Nov. 26 game at Pitt — the Mountaineers will suit up in black and white uniforms that pay tribute to the 29 men killed in the Upper Big Branch mine explosion.
Nike is footing the bill for the gear, dubbed Pro Combat.
The white is a shade that appears as if it’s covered in a fine layer of coal dust. The numbers are in smudged black.
Accents and footwear are brilliant gold, which doubles as a reference to the canaries miners used generations ago to signal trouble in the underground atmosphere.
