Race-car mechanic dies of injuries from Madison beating

[Fio1]

This was a very good friend of mine. A great kid that had a bright future. He was the life of the party and no one I know ever had anything bad to say. We worked together in 2003 until Daytona 24 2005. Great guy that will be sadly missed. :cry:

Sorry to hear about that. Sadly he isn't the first to be hurt/killed in that area the last few years. I'm glad they caught the people who did it as well. The Madison police department hasn't been very good at that lately.

really sad to read this Fio1. I'm sorry for your loss and for the loss of a good person. The world needs more of them. :(

Sorry to hear this sad news, my prayers for the family.

Ya, it's really shocking. He's the last guy to pick a fight or argue with someone like one of the suspects is trying to say. I could see myself or some other friends doing that, but not Eddie. Also, I can't believe they set bail at $5000 for the one who delivered the fatal blow. $5000 bail for a murder? :eek: :saywhat:
