Grand jury to weigh case of NASCAR's Tony Stewart

[Redagger029]

A grand jury will decide whether NASCAR driver Tony Stewart will be charged in the August death of a fellow driver at a sprint car race in upstate New York, a prosecutor said Tuesday.

Ontario County District Attorney Michael Tantillo said he made the decision to present the case to a grand jury after reviewing evidence collected by county sheriff's investigators.


Tantillo could have determined there was not enough evidence to support charges and dropped the case, but instead announced his decision more than a month after Stewart's car struck and killed Kevin Ward Jr. at a dirt-track race on Aug. 9.

I'm assuming he will with the family, but the grand jury is criminal. I'm sure the prosecutor had a lot of outside pressure to present it. It's out of his hands now.

Kid shoulda stayed in the car...end of story.

This whole thing is a big waste of time and a ploy to get TS to pay out a large settlement.

Tony has ZERO chance of losing in court.
