This a quote from the press release.
The grand jury has completed its investigation. During the course of the grand jury presentation, approximately two dozen witnesses testified. These included a number of race car drivers, racetrack employees and volunteers, two accident reconstruction experts, medical personnel, and a number of police officers. In addition, the grand jury reviewed a number of photographs and video recordings, as well as other documentary evidence.
This is from the DVR of the press conference I have of the DA saying how the videos were processed by the Investigators and the GJ Members.
2 different videos the one from the .net and one from the Track Cameras were slowed down to 25,50 and 75% speeds and overlaid with a grid to check the detailed movements of the scene. They also did frame by frame the same way. Stewart's car did not change direction UNTIL Kevin Ward was run over by the RR tire.
Those are the words of the DA- not Mine.
BTW My offer of sending a copy of the video is still out there.
On the threads right after it happened some people were talking about how one doesn't really “steer” these sprint cars, but use the pedal, skidding, etc. to maneuver them. Or something like that. But their point was it is not like driving a regular car, and goes against what we normally experience and see in driving our cars.
Unfortunately, some people just don’t care about any of that.
It is clear from the initial video that Stewart did not drive toward Ward, that Ward in fact walked towards him.
But some people were so eager to convict him they ignored the evidence right in front of their eyes and so reluctant to admit they were wrong that they will continue to insist that Stewart drove towards him even though a grand jury fund differently. A group of people that studied that video and other evidence in depth somehow knows less about what happened than those who continue to condemn Stewart.
