Tiger Woods Accident Update

The Florida Highway Patrol has released information concerning Tiger Woods’ accident.

While the crash investigation continues and “charges are pending” the FHP says they have been “unable to speak to Mr. Woods about the crash…despite the attempts to do so.”

They also did not tell details of “pending charges” or if Elin Nordegren would be charged.

The star athlete’s agent spoke for him on Sunday, explaining why he did not choose to speak with the FHP: “Further discussion with them is both voluntary and optional. Although Tiger realizes that there is a great deal of public curiosity, it has been conveyed to FHP that he simply has nothing more to add and wishes to protect the privacy of his family.”

Meanwhile, CNN senior legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin explained, “Tiger Woods is under no legal obligation to speak with police...The Fifth Amendment gives everyone an absolute right to refuse to talk to them. He may be counting on the fact that if no new news emerges, everybody will move on.”
