Special Section: Nick Adenhart: 1986 - 2009
The Orange County district attorney's office is investigating whether a toxicology report about the driver of a car carrying Angels pitcher Nick Adenhart and his friends that was involved in a fatal crash may have been wrongfully leaked.
Courtney Stewart, 20, had a blood alcohol concentration slightly above the legal limit for a minor, but it is not clear if it affected her driving.
Deputy District Attorney Susan Price said Stewart's blood-alcohol level doesn't matter because the crash was not her fault.
Andrew Thomas Gallo, formerly of Riverside, is accused of broad-siding Stewart's car, killing her, Adenhart and law student Henry Pearson. Gallo is charged with three counts of second-degree murder and related drunken-driving charges. Passenger Jon Wilhite survived and is recovering at his parents' home in Murrieta.
Price said she believes Gallo's defense attorney, Randall Longwith, leaked the toxicology report about Stewart to OC Weekly.
"It's a pathetic attempt to bring about inadmissible and irrelevant information," Price said.
She said the office is now investigating if releasing the reports was unethical or illegal.
The Orange County coroner's office has not released the reports. Such reports are public after a criminal investigation is complete.
Longwith did not return calls seeking comment Thursday.
The report shows Stewart had a blood alcohol concentration of 0.06 percent. However, alcohol was not detected in the liver, brain or eye fluid.
Price, who specializes in vehicular cases, said the results are unusual and it is not yet clear what it means.
The crash occurred minutes after the group of friends left Stewart's apartment, Price said.
In California, the legal alcohol limit for a motorist younger than 21 is 0.05, she said.
The Department of Motor Vehicles can take administrative action on a driver younger than 21 for having a 0.01 concentration.
The report also caused confusion because another test showed blood taken from the heart area had a concentration of 0.16 percent.
Toxicologist Chris Long, of St. Louis University, said trauma to the chest or abdomen can cause inaccurate readings in blood collected from the heart.
He also described the lack of alcohol in the other body parts as unusual. Long said it could suggest that the alcohol had not yet been absorbed and therefore may not have affected her driving.
The body can also naturally produce alcohol in the blood after death, he said.

Re: Angel's Nick Adenhart dies in Car Crash
How do you guys feels about this? I personally feel it's a case of media racism. No doubt about it, its wrong to get blasted, get behind a wheel, and then accidentally kill someone. I won't argue that, but I feel that all the facts need to come out. Even though, Courtney was obeying all the rules of the road, all the facts must come out. If some of you couldn't figure it out, I'm a white guy with a lot of Mexican heritage, and I feel that not giving all the facts, and hiding the toxicology report of Courtney from public was just an attempt to protect the reputation of another privileged white kid from Orange County, all the while, Gallo was being demonized for something that was an accident and happens everyday around the world.

Re: Angel's Nick Adenhart dies in Car Crash
A van driven by Andrew Thomas Gallo, a 22-year-old Riverside resident, ran a red light at the Fullerton intersection of Lemon and Orangethorpe and slammed the two-door Eclipse in which Adenhart was a passenger, hurtling it against a telephone pole. Gallo has a history of arrests for driving under the influence. While withholding specifics, Hamilton said his blood-alcohol reading was above the minimum. The officer also said Gallo was driving with a license suspended due to his DUI infractions.
People are dead because of his actions. That's what the main focus is (and should be). He lost his license from past DUI's, and was driving drunk when he hit them. Regardless if she had a small amount of alcohol in her system, he still ran the red light, crashed into their car, then took off. What are you gonna do; give her a ticket for drinking a beer earlier?
The chick is dead. I wouldn't blame "media racism", blame the guy for being a dumbass. Although, in fairness to your post (Shadowplay), yes it is something that happens all over the world (drunk driving). However, this time it involved a MLB pitcher getting killed.

Re: Angel's Nick Adenhart dies in Car Crash
I agree with Stoner. I'm not quick to blame media racism at all on this. The guy screwed up one too many times, it obviously wasn't his first time driving drunk, he even signed a paper, legally agreeing he understands he could end up killing someone driving drunk, and he did it anyways and ended up killing people. Whether or not the girl had a drink or not is irrelavent, he shouldnt of even been driving at all that night period.
