Washington Commanders player Deshazor Everett has been charged with involuntary manslaughter in connection with a December crash that killed a female passenger, Virginia officials said Tuesday. The Loudoun County Sheriff's Office said Everett was driving at over twice the 45 mph speed limit just before the crash.
On December 23, Everett and his passenger, 29-year-old Olivia Peters, were driving in a 2010 Nissan GT-R when the vehicle "left the right side of the roadway, struck several trees, and rolled over" at approximately 9:15 p.m., the sheriff's office said in a statement.
Everett was hospitalized after the accident with what the Commanders described as "serious but non-life-threatening injuries." Peters was hospitalized and later died from her injuries.
Two climbers were waiting to be rescued near the peak of Denali, a colossal mountain that towers over miles of vast tundra in southern Alaska, officials said Wednesday. Originally part of a three-person team that became stranded near the top of the mountain, the climbers put out a distress call more than 30 hours earlier suggesting they were hypothermic and unable to descend on their own, according to the National Park Service.
There's no making up for what Olympic hurdler Lashinda Demus lost on the day she finished .07 seconds behind a Russian opponent who, everyone later learned, was doping. What the American 400-meter hurdles champion will finally receive is a great day under the Eiffel Tower where she'll be presented with the gold medal she was denied 12 years ago at the London Olympics.
