Palm Beach County Fire Rescue personnel pronounced 0-2 dead on scene.

Dr. Michael Bell, M.D., of the Palm Beach County Medical Examiner's Office,

BACKGROUND

On Friday, February 12, 2010,0-2 was traveling from Orlando where he lived and went to

college on his way to his mother's house in Wellington. 0-2 was westbound on Lake

Worth Road through the intersection of 120thAvenue South where the collision occurred.

John Goodman (0-1) invoked his right to counsel and did not provide me with a

statement. However, background information on 0-1 was established through witness

statements and physical evidence gathered during the investigation. According to witness

testimony John Goodman had attended a fund raising benefit at the White Horse Tavern,

3401 Equestrian Club Drive, Wellington, FL 33414, from around 7:00 p.m. until 10:00 p.m.

Goodman drank alcoholic beverages and ate dinner during the fund raiser. Goodman

then left the fundraiser and drove to the Player's Club, 13410 Southshore Boulevard,

Wellington, Florida 33414, where he continued to drink alcoholic beverages. Goodman left

the Player's Club alone. He drove his black Bentley GTC south on Southshore Boulevard

and turned left onto Pierson Road to travel eastbound. Goodman then drove to 120th

6

CASENUMBER 10-037896




Avenue South where he turned right to travel southbound. Goodman then traveled

southbound on 120thAvenue South approaching the intersection of Lake Worth Road.

Goodman entered the intersection, failing to stop for the posted stop sign when the

collision occurred. Goodman walked away from the scene of the collision and did not call

911 until 1:55 a.m., 54 minutes after the collision was reported.

CRASH ANAL YS/S

The dynamics of this crash involve V-1 traveling southbound on 120thAvenue South

approaching the intersection of Lake Worth Road. V-2 was traveling westbound on Lake

Worth Road approaching the intersection of 120th Avenue South. As V-2 entered the

intersection, V-1 entered the intersection and did not stop for a marked stop sigh. This

caused a violent collision with the front ofV-1 impacting into the passenger side ofV-2. As

the collision ensued V-2 began to slide sideways in a southwest direction and V-1

continued southbound rotating in a clockwise rotation. V-1 then pushed V-2 sideways in a

southwest direction through the intersection and off the roadway south of Lake Worth

Road. V-1 and V-2 entered the dirt shoulder south of Lake Worth Road and both vehicles

began to furrow into the dirt. V-1 and V-2 continued in a southwest direction toward the

canal south of Lake Worth Road. V-1 came to rest facing southwest north of the canal. V-

2 continued southwest sideways and rolled down the bank of the canal and into the water.

V-2 came to rest submerged in the water upside-down.

INVESTIGA T ION

Sheriffs Office Vehicle Homicide Investigations Sergeant John Churchill notified me

of this collision at 3:10 a.m. on 02 / 12110 . At 3:18 a.m., I arrived on the scene; Palm Beach

County Sheriffs Office Deputies had previously secured the scene by blocking eastbound

and westbound traffic on Lake Worth Road and north and southbound traffic on 120th

Avenue South. The traffic crash investigation (reference companion case number 10-

037895) was assigned to Investigator Robert Stephan # 7240 and Sergeant John Churchill

# 3848 assigned the Vehicle Homicide Investigation to me.

arrival on scene, I met with DUI Enforcement Deputy Kenneth Noel # 7660

who arrived on scene at 2:38 a.m. Noel told me 0-1 had left the scene of the collision and

called 911 later stating he was driving the Bentley and had pulled in front of someone. D-1

was later transported to Wellington Regional Medical Center. Noel also told me 0-1 was

located at an address south of the collision scene on 120thAvenue South. Noel then told

me there was a witness at the address on 120thAvenue South, who spoke to 0-1. (Refer

to Noel's supplemental report). I then spoke to Deputy Mitch Rieger # 2820, the first

responding Deputy, who arrived on scene at 1:12 a.m. Rieger stated he responded to the

scene of the collision and saw a damaged black Bentley on the side of the road and a

vehicle upside-down in the canal. Reiger stated the witness, Nicole Oroco, had already left

8





the scene prior to his arrival. He said he called for a tow truck (at 1:38 a.m.) to recover the

vehicle because Fire Rescue Personnel told him the vehicle in the canal was not occupied.

Rieger said the driver of the Bentley was not on sce.newhen he arrived. He then told me

the driver of the Bentley called dispatch (at 1:55 a.m.) and gave his location south of the

collision scene. Rieger said Deputy Safford (# 8885) responded to pick up the driver

identified as John Goodman. He said Safford brought Goodman back to the scene and

Palm Beach County Fire Rescue Personnel placed him in the back of a rescue rig. Rieger

said he spoke to Goodman and smelled a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage coming

from his person and the back of the rescue rig. He said Goodman told him he stopped at

the stop sign and then hit something, but did not know what it was. Rieger said Sister's

Towing responded and removed the vehicle from the canal and found the driver wa s s till

belted into the driver seat and appeared to be deceased. Rieger said he then called for the

Vehicle Homicide Unit. (For further information refer to Deputy Rieger's supplemental

report.)

On 02 /12 /10 at 3:25 a.m., I conducted a walk through of the scene and observed a

Black Bentley GTe convertible south of Lake Worth Road facing southwest. The Bentley

had extensive front end damage and the driver side steering wheel and knee bolster

airbags were deployed. I also saw a tan Hyundai Sonata four-door connected to a large

Sister's Towing tow truck. The Hyundai had extensive passenger side damage, water plant

life inside the vehicle and the vehicle appeared to have been in the water. 0-2 was also

still belted in the driver seat. I also identified gouge marks and tire marks in the roadway

and in the dirt leading to the final rest of V-1 and the canal. I then saw a set of boot prints

9





leading away from V-1 and traveling southbound on 120thAvenue South. The boot prints

lead to the address of 4193 120thAvenue South where 0-1 was found, approximately 1038

feet from the collision scene. The prints were the shape of cowboy boots with a square

toe.

On 02/12 /10 at 3:33 a.m., I departed the collision scene and responded to

Wellington Regional Medical Center to conduct an impairment assessment on 0-1. Upon

my arrival, 0-1 was in radiology having X-ray's taken of his injuries. I made contact with 0-

1 and saw he was wearing a pair of square toe cowboy boots and the boots had sand on

them. The sand matched the sand from the roadway the boot prints were found on. I saw

his eyes were bloodshot and glassy. He also was slow with his movements and slurred his

speech while he was speaking. There was a strong odor of an unknown alcoholic

beverage corning from his breath as he spoke. 0-1 was on a hospital bed and I made no

observations of his balance or ability to walk. I then asked 0-1 if he would give me a

statement about what happened in the collision and he stated he wanted to talk to his

lawyer. I was advised 0-1 's lawyer was in the lobby of the emergency room. I made

contact with his attorney, Wade Byrd, and told him 0-1 wanted him present while I spoke to

him. I then walked Byrd back to the room where 0-1 was located. Byrd briefly spoke with

0-1 and he advised me 0-1 would not give me a statement. I then asked Byrd if 0-1 would

allow me to obtain a blood sample from him consensually. Byrd stated he was not sure 0-

1 wanted to give a sample. At that time I advised 0-1 I had probable cause to conduct a

nurse Cecilia Betts, a nurse in the emergency room of Wellington Regional Hospital, to

10


forced blood draw from him and he did not have the right to refuse. I instructed registered




conduct a blood draw from 0-1. I supplied her with a sealed unexpired blood kit and

observed her draw blood from 0-1 's left arm using a butterfly needle. The butterfly needle

was supplied by the hospital and Betts told me she was more comfortable utilizing the

butterfly needle. The first blood draw was conducted at 3:59 a.m. and the second was

conducted at 4:00 a.m. Betts turned over the blood vials to me and I inverted the tubes

several times. I sealed the vials and labeled them with the case number and 0-1 's

information before placing them into the box supplied in the kit. The kit was sealed with

evidence tape and Betts signed a certificate of blood withdrawal form.

After obtaining consent from 0-1, I then photographed 0-1 and his injuries.

On 02/12/10 at 3:40 a.m., Investigator Robert Stephan arrived on scene. Stephan

and OUI Enforcement Oeputy Noel located on scene evidence and roadway markings.

Investigator Stephan took photographs of the scene, victim and vehicles involved. (Referto

Investigator Stephan's supplemental report).

On 02/12/10 at 4:16 a.m., I reviewed a copy of the 911 call recording from the

Palm Beach County Sheriffs Office Oispatch Records. 0-1 called 911at 1:55 a.m., 54

minutes after the collision was reported. 0-1stated "I just had a wreck. And, urn, I, uh,

urn, walked over and my phone was dead and someone -- where am 1 7 Lake Worth

and 120th. And, uh, um, what direction is, uh, 120thAvenue?" 0-1 then stated "And,

urn, I just actually pulled out in front of someone." He also gave the location of where

he was. (For further information refer to the transcribed dispatch recording.)

On 02/12/10 at 4:22 a.m., I responded back to the scene of the collision and met

with Investigator Robert Stephan. Investigator Stephan told me he was documenting the

11

boot prints and photographing them. He advised me that the family of 0-2 was at the

scene and wanted to talk to me. I made contact with the Medical Examiner Investigator

Lidia Littlefield on scene and she told me they positively identified 0-2 by his Florida Driver

License. I then made contact with 0-2's father William Wilson and made next-of-kin

notification. I turned the blood kit over to Deputy Noel and he transported the kit to the

Palm Beach County Sheriffs Office Crime Lab, where he placed it into the crime lab

refrigerator.

On 02/12/10 at 5:00 a.m., I met with Lisa Pembleton, an independent witness, at

4193 120thAvenue South, Wellington, Florida 33414. I told Pembleton I was investigating

the collision and wanted to talk with her about it. Pembleton agreed to provide me with a

recorded swom statement. The following is a brief synopsis: Pembleton told me she was

awakened in her trailer by a knock on the door. She said a man walked into her trailer and

asked to use the phone. The man told her he was involved in an accident and needed to

call someone. She said she gave him her cellular phone and he called a lady in Georgia.

Pembleton said the male then asked her if he looked impaired and if he should call 911.

She told him to call 911 and he did. She said the male stayed on the phone with 911 until

the police arrived and took him. (For further information refer to the transcribed statement.)

Pembelton agreed to let me look at her cellular phone and record the calls made by

0-1. I saw that 0-1 called at 1:52 a.m., 911 at 1:55 and 1:56, and the

number lied incoming at 2:10 a.m. There was also a message left on the

voice mail. The message was a Hispanic male that said, "This is Carlos give me a call

back."

12





On 02/12/10 at 7:45 a.m., I took aerial photographs of the area of the collision

scene.

On 02/12/10 at 8:15 a.m., Investigator Robert Stephan, Karly Gallart # 7347 and I

completed a forensic mapping of the scene utilizing the Sokkia Mapping Station. The

measurements of this scaled diagram were utilized to illustrate the dynamics of this

collision and the documentation of the roadway.

On 02/16 /10 at 1:00 p.m., I responded to the Palm Beach County Courthouse and

met with Judge Frank Castor to sign a search warrant for oral mouth swabs from 0-1 for

DNA testing and the cowboy boots 0-1 was wearing the night of the collision. Judge

Castor reviewed the search warrant and search warrant application and agreed to sign the

search warrant. I then contacted Mark Shapiro, 0-1's attorney, and advised him] had a

search warrant for the items. His attorney stated a search warrant was not needed and 0-

1 would consent to provide me with anything that was necessary. I then made an

appointment to meet with 0-1 and his attorney to retrieve the requested items.

On 02/16 /10 at 5:35 p.m., I met with Facundo Paredes, the valet at the Players

Club, at 13410 Southshore Boulevard, Wellington, Florida 33414. I told Paredes I was

investigating the collision that occurred at the intersection of Lake Worth Road and 120th

Avenue South and wanted to talk with him about it. Paredes agreed to speak with me and

the following is a brief synopsis: Paredes stated he was working the night before the

collision and was parking cars at the Players Club. He said he saw Goodman arrive at the

club and park his own car in front. He advised Goodman left the club alone at around one

hour before the club closed. He said Goodman was only at the club for one to two hours

13





and the club closes at 2:00 a.m.

On 02/16/10 at 6:15 p.rn., while at The Players Club, I met with Manger Paul Griffo

and asked him which employees were working on 02/11/10 through 02/12/10. Griffo told

me he had just notified their attorney, Craig Galle, upon my arrival and Galle would be

coming to the club. Galle responded to the Players Club and told me he would set up an

appointment for interviewing employees on 02/18/10 at 4:00 p.m. I also told Galle I was

requesting the bar receipts for 0-1 and the people drinking with him at the bar the night

before the collision. I told Galle I would provide him with a subpoena. Galle then told me

he also represents the White Horse Tavern and I could contact him with any questions I

had for that business. I told Galle I would like the bar receipts for 0-1 the day before the

collision. I told him I would also provide him with a subpoena for the receipts.

On 02/16/10 at 8:00 p.m., I drove from the Players Club to the intersection of 120th

Avenue South and Lake Worth Road utilizing the route V-1 took leading up to the collision.

The distance recorded was three miles and took 4 minutes and 35 seconds driving at the

speed limits of the roadways traveled.

On 02/16/10 at 8:15 p.m., I walked the route 0-1 took after leaving the scene of the

collision. This was in an attempt to account for the 54 minutes between the reporting of the

collision and 0-1' s call to 911. I walked at a steady pace from the final rest of V-1 to the

fifth wheel trailer located on the property at 4193 120thAvenue South. The route took

seven minutes to walk.

On 02/17/10 at 10:00 a.m., I responded to the Palm Beach County State Attorney's

Office and obtained subpoenas for the telephone records of John Goodman's cellular

14





phone.

On 02/17/10 at 2:40 p.m., I received the telephone records for John Goodman from

AT&T wireless.

On 2/18/10 at 12:59 a.m., I conducted roadway friction tests utilizing a Vericom

VC4000 accelerometer. The test was conducted using a 2001 Chevrolet Impala, four door,

police vehicle, vehicle identification number 2G1WF55K619335943, bearing Florida tag

33948. The test revealed the roadway friction in the area of the collision to be a .74 drag

recorded these conditions. These conditions may have varied from those found at the

collision, as the recording site was approximately 8.6 miles northeast of the scene.

On 02/18/10 at 4:00 p.m., I met with Galle at the Players Club. I gave the subpoena

to Galle and he provided me with the bar receipts for 0-1, Kris Kampsen and a male only

identified as Stephan. He also told me there were no receipts from the White Horse

Tavern, as 0-1 did not pay for dinner. I reviewed the receipts and found 0-1 purchased

15





$212.00 in alcoholic drinks including ten Espolon Silvers, a Patron Silver, a JW Red, a

written on the inside of the boots and the manufacturer's stamp. I recorded the number 89-

22-H and the manufacturer as ML Leddy of Texas. I then contacted Joselyn an employee

at ML Leddy and asked about the serial numbers in the boots. Joselyn stated the numbers

are for a customer's measurements and are used in case the customer wants another pair

of boots. I gave the number to Joselyn and she advised 1Tlt3l1e numbers came back to a

pair of boots custom made in 2005 for John Goodman of Houston Texas. She stated the

boots were the only pair made and described the boots in my possession. The boots were

INVESTIGA riVE SUMMARY

This investigator, given all of the facts, is compelled to conclude:

1. John. Goodman (0-1) was operat ing a black Bentley GTe (V-1). Goodman was

traveling southbound on 120thAvenue South approaching the intersection of Lake Worth

Road. Scott Wilson (0-2) was operat ing a tan Hyundai Sonata (V-2) westbound on Lake

Worth Road approaching the intersect ion of 120thAvenue South. As Wilson entered the

intersection, V-1 entered the intersection through a stop sign. The front ofV-1 struck the

passenger side ofV-2 in the intersect ion and V-1 pushed V-2 into a canal southwest of the

intersection. V-1 was traveling in excess of the posted speed limit at the time of the

collision. 0-2 died as a result of the collision.

2. The area of the collision is controlled by a posted and unobstructed forty-five miles

per hour speed limit sign for westbound Lake Worth Road and a thirty-five miles per hour

speed limit sign for southbound 120thAvenue South. These speed limit signs were erect

and free from obstruction at the time of the collision.

3. According to physical evidence, 0-1 failed to stop for a posted stop sign and collided

with V-2 at the intersection of Lake Worth Road and 120thAvenue South. 0-1 was the only

occupant of the V-1.

4. According to speed calculations, V-1 was traveling at 63 miles per hour at the time

of the col l ision and V-2 was traveling at 44 miles per hour at the time of the collision.

These speeds are consistent with the physical evidence and damage to both vehicles.

5. Toxicology Manager Dustin Tate Yeatman documented Goodman's blood test

25

CASENUi'rfBER 10-037896



Dihydrocodeine at less than 10 ng/ml.


revealed a blood alcohol level of .177% w/v ethyl alcohol, Hydrocodone at 42ng/mL, and

6. John Goodman, while operating V-1, caused the this collision and made no attempt

to assist the driver of V-2 post collision, thus the driver of V-2 drowned.

7. Witnesses who stopped at the collision as early as 1:01 a.m. stated Goodman was

not present at the scene. Goodman made no attempts to flag down any vehicles for help.

Goodman traveled down a dark roadway away from the collision scene and did not make

an attempt to summon aid for 54 minutes after the first witness reported the collision.

8. Goodman drove past his residence prior to the collision and walked in a direction

opposite from his residence in relation to the collision scene.

9. Scott Wilson's death was determined by the Palm Beach County Medical

Examiner's Office due to: Drowning as a result of a motor vehicle collision.

Therefore, based on the aforementioned information, this investigator

concludes that John Goodman was operating the 2007 black Bentley GTC at a high rate of

speed while intoxicated and struck Scott Wilson's 2006 Hyundai Sonata causing it to roll

over into a canal where Wilson drowned. Goodman then left the scene of the collision on

foot and did not stop to render aid to Wilson. Therefore, Scott Wilson drowned as a result

of his vehicle coming to rest in the canal. The collision occurred before 1:01 a.m. and

Goodman did not call 911 until 1:55 a.m., and only after he called his girlfriend and was

told he should call 911 by Pembleton.

26





Therefore, based on the aforementioned information, it is my finding that there is

sufficient probable cause to support the following violations of Florida State Statue by John

Goodman:

1. One count of Driving Under the Influence Manslaughter Failure to Render Aid in

violation of Florida State Statue 316.193 (3)(c)(3)(b).

2. One count of Vehicle Homicide Failure to Render Aid in violation of Florida State Statue

782.071 (1)(b).

This case is being forwarded to the Palm Beach County State Attorney's Office for

review.

INVESTIGATIVE REPORT SUPPLEMENT

On February 12, 2010, at approximately 2:50 a.m. I was notified of this traffic fatality

by Sergeant John Churchill of the Palm Beach County Sheriffs Office. I was directed to

respond to the Palm Beach County Sheriffs Office Traffic Division to pick up and drive

the Vehicle Homicide Incident Command Truck to the scene of the crash which was

located at 120th Avenue South and Lake Worth Road, Wellington, Florida 33414.

At approximately 3:19 a.m. I arrived at the Palm Beach County Sheriffs Office Traffic

Division. I retrieved the incident command truck and responded to the crash scene.

At approximately 3:40 a.m. I arrived at the crash scene. Investigator Troy Snelgrove of

the Palm Beach County Sheriffs Office directed me to photograph the scene. After a

brief scene inspection, I began to document boot prints, within the loose, sandy, dirt road,

which led from the final resting position of the black Bentley (involved in the crash) to a

private horse farm located at 4159 120th Avenue South, Wellington, Florida 33414. I

took numerous photographs of the boot prints. These boot prints were the only prints

leading away vehicle to the residence. Further, they were distinguishable by the

distinct flat heel and sole combination and flat front toe (riding boots, cowboy boots,

etc.). Also, several measurements were taken of the boot prints. The prints were

approximately eleven and one-half inches from the heel to the toe and were documented

within several photographs. The path of travel was also documented. I took yellow

numbered triangular signs and placed one numbered sign just prior to the heel print of

each foot step. It should be noted, the numbered signs were reused after photographs had

been taken as the footsteps progressed down the roadway.
