Sheesh, calm down. I've already apologized in a previous post for saying something when I didn't have all the facts. Baiul was pulled over for a DUI back in the nineties and I thought I remembered something about drugs in her system. I should never have said anything about the drugs, and didn't elaborate on that point. I am well aware that athletes and celebrities from all nations have substance abuse problems, it can come from not knowing how to handle stardom and the sudden attention and money that comes along with it. And Oksana has no support system, Victor Petrenko and her coach have been wonderful, but for a time there, she did live a lifestyle that they urged her against. And sorry, she does look weary of life in her interviews now. It is really sad to see a fresh faced young girl be so hurt by life. Oksana has been dealt a cruel hand in life. I feel for her, I really do.

Don't apologize for stating the truth....Oxana's been a train wreck for several years..she lives in Greenwich, CT..nearby to me, and several times she's made the front pages of the tabloids....driving her Mercedes into a ditch, and other escapades....she's had more opportunities than most people ever get in teir lives, and plenty of folks tried to help her..she wouldn't take it....sometimes ya gotta hit bottom before you can get well.....look at Dwight Gooden..
