As someone "In the Business" per se. Ms. Bowles attorney is trying like mad to hide information that would makes their client comparatively negligent. My guess is Bowles was:
1) Well aware the driver was intoxicated and got in vehicle anyway
2) Was aware that a race was planned and got in car anyway.
3) Both
I notice what firm represents Bowles and they are one of the slimy multi-state ones with class action experience. I wonder what other parties in the accident they are also representing.
As an employee, you have a duty to cooperate with investigations in workplace. The attorney was hoping to win the PR battle and force the association to back off an investigation. Now he has poisoned the water and the association and their insurer is less likely to even offer a nuisance settlement if she was significantly involved or aware of the torts.
On a side note, if you get into a car with a drunk driver, you are actually MORE likely to recover damages if you were drunk too.
