The more you research the past of the lying leftist media morons the more you realize that these mental midgets see themselves above the law. For them laws were made for you and I, not them. If you think about it for a moment, that makes prefect sense. Ask yourself who literally gets away with murder in despotic societies. Why yes, it is those in power or with friends in power, not we the peasants. So with his holier (in a statist sense) than thou beliefs, Rick no doubt felt no need to stop when he ran his car into Jeffrey Smuzinick, so he didn’t. Yet today he actually has the nerve to be spewing his tripe over the airways. But wouldn’t that figure, at least for the coward and scofflaw, Slick Rick.
Here is Slick Rick’s real story from bartcop.com entitled “Rick Sanchez – DWI, Hit-and-Run criminal“:
It happened on Dec. 10, 1990. Mr. Sanchez, seriously drunk behind the wheel, with his dad as passenger, was leaving a Miami Dolphins game. He had barely left the stadium parking area before he hit a man who was running between cars, and who (unfortunately) was also drunk. Undoubtedly helped by invisible friends on the police force, Sanchez was not charged with causing the accident, but was later charged with (and pleaded no contest to) DUI.
But here’s the cowardly part: Sanchez initially left the scene of the accident for 2 full hours. One local report said he first went home to get his license and fell asleep. (Yeah, right.)
Anyway, by the time he meandered back to the scene and his dilly-dallying cop friends
tested him for alcohol, it was at least four hours after the accident. Even with all his friends helping him, Sanchez’s blood still registered .15 — way above the then-legal-limit of .10.
Closing chapter for victim: The Miami Herald, Nov. 2, 1995
“Jeffrey Smuzinick, who was left paralyzed after being struck by the car of Channel 7 anchor Rick Sanchez, died Monday in a Pennsylvania nursing home. He was 36. Smuzinick was injured Dec. 10, 1990, after he ran out into traffic following a Dolphins football game. He was struck by a 1991 Volvo driven by Sanchez. Smuzinick suffered severe head injuries and was in a coma for many months. He underwent rehabilitation in Florida …”
So, this A1-Miami-Coward is allowed to smear Gen. Wesley Clark on international television? PUHleeeeze.
Here are the headlines and snippets from the newspapers regarding Slick Rick. The last reference is really telling. Slick Rick had media access to shape public opinion and Jeffery had nothing. His actions at the scene of the accident to the police shows his concern for Jeffrey, “…eyewitnesses claim the anchorman ignored the injured man and loudly told police and bystanders that blood tests were pointless, and would hurt his public image.” Slick Rick, you are despicable.

Anchorman charged with DUI
Associated Press
A Miami television anchorman has been charged with driving under the influence of alcohol in a December accident in which police say he left the scene after hitting a man and returned later.
Rick Sanchez, anchor for WSVN, was charged Friday with one count of DUI, a first-degree misdemeanor in the Dec. 10 accident outside Joe Robbie Stadium, prosecutor Kathleen Hoague said.
If convicted, Sanchez faces a maximum of six months in prison and a $500 fine.
A blood test showed Sanchez had a blood-alcohol level that night of .15 percent. A person with a .10 level is considered legally drunk in Florida.
The man Sanchez hit was critically injured and remains in a coma at North Shore Hospital.
Ms. Hoague said Friday that she thinks Sanchez was driving drunk at the time of the accident, but prosecutors decided not to charge him with causing bodily injury while driving drunk, a third-degree felony.
