The David Freese deer saga appears to still be ongoing: http://bit.ly/VazLBn
After reading the article, I was disappointed she'd actually promote that story. It has zero facts other than those that point to Freese simply having an accident. But, sure, throw in some conspiracy theories supported by people of no particular relevance, remind everyone he used to drink and drive, and then say he was at a fundraiser the night before and wala, you can steer people to believing something bad happened and is being covered up.

It's a joke, really. If I was freese, I'd be pissed at Langosch for spreading that story. Especially since it takes facts and puts them in the backseat and puts stupid theories that sell stories in the front seat.

AHHHHH
did you miss:
Tire tracks show that the SUV left the road approximately 50 feet east of Duff’s mailbox. The vehicle smashed through the mailbox, crossed the driveway, jumped a small stone decorative wall, crashed through a fence and then proceeded into a field. It continued about 300 feet through the field, then veered back toward the road. It crashed back through the fence and hit two trees — exposing the roots of one of them — before coming to its final resting place against the third tree.
that is some seriously horrible driving.

I don't know if anyone has ever said he was a good driver. But, to start saying he was asleep or drunk or whatever people are trying to say is a stretch. What are people trying to say?

not one person said he seemed drunk in the article. asleep or driving way too fast.

He's a seriously [expletive] driver.

Sounds like he was trying to avoid a lot of deer. Damn things were having a thanksgiving party in the highway and surrounding area and Freese avaoided all of them. He is an awesome driver.

Meh. He's a bad driver. Okay. Maybe he got excited, hit the gas instead of the brake, since he is a bad driver and in a panic, and swerved to miss a deer causing all the carnage.

Regardless the article unnecessarily cast Freese as irresponsible in this case, imho of course.

sometimes I feel like a defense lawyer on here.

David Freese was off the roadway for roughly 400 feet. That is all.

I'm especially glad to have the bolded information. Really drives the story home.
