as much as i like to quote that, i wont.
thanks for the good research, and i remember seeing a video on youtube about a guy, one of the people of the list's son, crashed his dads enzo driving drunk on the highway. he moved into the passanger seat, passed out, and when he woke up with the police around him, he blamed some guy that ran away in the middle of the desert.
he forgot he left his blood on the airbag in the drivers seat and everyone who saw him leave the party alone.
