Porsche Blames Paul Walker For His Death In Lawsuit Response

Paul Walker

The Porsche motor car company has blamed deceased Hollywood star Paul Walker for his November 2014 death in California, which occurred while riding as a passenger in their Carerra GT model. The late actor's 16-year-old daughter, Meadow Walker, filed a lawsuit in court against Porsche blaming them for his death. The lawsuit alleges the car is unsafe and is capable of traveling at a very high rate of speed not suitable for public roads.

Porsche has filed an answer to the lawsuit blaming Walker for his death, citing the Carerra GT he died in, with friend and race car driver, Roger Rodas, behind the wheel was modified, poorly maintained, "misused" and driven recklessly. I am sorry for Meadow's loss, but to be frank, Porsche's allegations of poor maintenance and misuse, coupled with the fact Rodas was speeding on a public road (not a controlled race course free of objects and unexpected turns in the road) is going to make it difficult for her to win the case.

Porsche is basically indicating Rodas and his estate are culpable in Walker's death. To a degree, they are correct. Road racing in a modified sports car is dangerous. Anyone who participates in such unlawful activities, assumes certain risks, such as the possibility of an untimely death. If Rodas had properly maintained the car and been within the speed limit, this would be a stronger case for the plaintiff.

Published 17th November 2015 - FAST and Furious star Paul Walker caused his own death in a car crash, Porsche said today. DENIAL: Paul Walker's daughter filed a law suit against porsche.

Porsche Cars North America added the vehicle had been “altered”, badly maintained, and “misused” – contributing to the actor’s passing at the age of just 40. The court papers said: “Mr Walker’s death, and all other injuries or damages claimed, were the result of Mr Walker’s own comparative fault.” DIFFER: Meadow believes the car hit a top speed of 70 mph, not 90 like the police claim...

TMZ Retracts Claim Paul Walker Burned To Death

 

Paul Walker

Yesterday's Judiciary Report column contained an article regarding TMZ claiming "Fast And Furious" actor Paul Walker burning to death in a fiery car crash, while being driven by his financial adviser Roger Rodas (Coroner Tells TMZ Actor Paul Walker Burned To Death After Car Crash).

The Judiciary Report disputed this claim, as the light weight, low riding, aerodynamic Porsche Carrera GT crashed into a light pole and tree going in excess of 100MPH, which ignited the gas tank, triggering a fire and explosion. Today, TMZ retracted their story regarding Walker burning alive and to death as well as the item stating the actor was seen flailing after the accident (see article below).

I'm a fan of the Porsche's aesthetic design (Boxster, Carrera, among others). I've also seen them up close and can tell you the obvious, it's not a heavy duty, military styled rugged vehicle like the Hummer. Therefore, a lightweight Porsche crashing into a solid, heavyweight object such as a light pole, whilst going at a high rate of speed, would inevitably result in catastrophic injuries to the human body (organ damage, profound blood loss, death). The impact was so terrible in the Walker tragedy, it split the Porsche in half (diagonally). The Judiciary Report is of the belief the men died instantly and did not feel the effects of the fire.

Furthermore, the gasoline based fire and explosion that ensued for several minutes consumed skin, flesh and did further damage to organs. How could they conclusively come up with an accurate profile of death in terms of consciousness after impact and feeling the effects of burning to death...

Paul Walker Death Image in Burning Porsche Video is NOT Paul 

12/5/2013 11:06 AM PST BY TMZ STAFF - Paul Walker did NOT make a final desperate attempt to escape the burning wreckage -- and the image seen in video shot right after the crash is definitely NOT Paul ... TMZ has learned.

There had been rampant speculation and buzz on the Internet that a shadowy figure seen around 23 seconds into the video of the burning Porsche Carrera GT ... was Walker trying to get out of the vehicle, but sources connected to the investigation now say it just isn't so ... for several reasons.

First, the sources tell us that, based on photographs of the wreckage ... Paul's body was pinned in an area of the car that makes it clear he couldn't have been flailing outside the vehicle. Also ...we're told that based on the injuries he suffered, Paul died within a nanosecond of impact, and therefore it's impossible for the image in the video to be him.

It's not clear how long after impact the video starts, but clearly more than a nanosecond. As for what the image really is -- we're told law enforcement has watched the video, and based on evidence from the crash site ... it appears to be a part of the car's roof burning.

Coroner Tells TMZ Actor Paul Walker Burned To Death After Car Crash (Video)

The TMZ website is stating the Los Angeles coroner's office informed them "Fast And Furious" actor Paul Walker, burned to death after the initial car crash that claimed his life last week at the age of 40. TMZ stated Walker died of "trauma" and "burn injuries" but the driver of the Porsche GT, Roger Rodas, did not.

The question is how can they tell, as Walker and Rodas were both burned beyond recognition, requiring dental records for a positive ID, after the car burst into flames and exploded. How burned was the skin and internal organs that someone came to the conclusion the passenger burned to death, but the driver did not. It's like trying to guess the cause of death after a cremation, as the car was a raging inferno for several minutes before firefighters arrived and put out the blaze.

Paul Walker

Video surveillance tapes shot from a distance reveals debris and a thick black plume of smoke rising in the air at the crash site. Shortly after, it is stated an explosion occurred, where the smoke becomes even thicker and darker. The car may have been on fire then exploded.

Without video proof, how do they know Walker didn't die on impact, as the car was speeding, going in excess of 100 miles per hour, then crashed into a light pole and tree. There is talk of a video tape where Walker is allegedly seen flailing before the car explodes. However, how do they know it was not an involuntary reflex that sometimes occurs right after death. It's a terrible thing to tell his family that he burned alive for a time before dying in an explosion, especially with no concrete proof (video tape showing the crash, then explosion).

 

Photos of the car accident

 

Unless there exists clear cut video proof regarding the tragic accident (not a video obscured by buildings) to speculate and hypothesize in this manner, supposing something so gruesome, isn't fair to Walker's grieving family and friends. It's downright cruel.

Paul Walker Burning Porsche Video May Show Escape Attempt 

 

12/4/2013 6:08 PM PST BY TMZ STAFF - A close examination of the video showing the Paul Walker's Porsche engulfed in flames reveals a shadowy image appearing to flail. There is now a swirl of speculation that the image, seen roughly 23 seconds into the clip, is Paul attempting to escape the death trap.

Law enforcement sources who participated in the investigation tell TMZ ... there is strong evidence that Paul and Roger Rodas never got out of their seats, but when pressed they would not conclusively say that Paul didn't attempt an escape.

Our sources say ... investigators are confident Roger absolutely didn't move -- but they would not definitely say that about Paul. One source says it appears both men were trapped in their seats and therefore did not attempt an escape, but the key word is "appears."

We're told law enforcement is looking at the video now. We broke the story ... the L.A. County Coroner's Office says Paul died from both trauma from the crash AND burn injuries, which insinuates the actor survived the initial impact and the fire was partially responsible for his death.

Fast And Furious Star Paul Walker Dies In Fiery Car Crash But TMZ Posted The Story Two Days Before It Happened

Paul Walker

Stunningly handsome "Fast And Furious" star Paul Walker has died in a tragic, fiery car crash. The good looking actor has been a staple in the "Fast And Furious" film franchise since its inception in 2001. Walker was a passenger in the Porsche Carrera GT of friend and financial advisor, Roger Rodas, a former race car driver.

Last known picture of Paul Walker, taken on November 30, 2013, shortly before he died minutes later.

 

The two were attending a fundraising event hosted by Walker's non-profit charity organization Reach Out Worldwide. Rodas, who was behind the wheel, took Walker for a joyride in his Porsche. The car careened out of control and crashed into a light pole and tree, presumably killing them instantly. Authorities have confirmed speed was a factor in the crash. Figure eight and donut patterns were observed on the road at the site of the crash.

The crumpled Porsche Paul Walker and friend Roger Rodas went for a drive in, crashing into a tree.

From start to finish the impact phase of the accident was a fireball. A motorist in another vehicle, who saw the car wrapped around a tree, after having knocked over a light pole due to the crash, stated to other drivers, "Drive away. It's going to blow up." A female motorist in another vehicle called 911 emergency services and stated as a loud bang is heard, "The car is in half. Yes there is someone in there."

The car on fire after the accident

Jim Thorp, a man who had met Walker earlier at the event stated, "A man and his wife. They saw it happen. They have it on video tape. They thought it was a film being made. They didn't know it was Paul or Roger. They had no clue. They just saw a very nice car get in an accident and then blow-up."

There are reports Rodas' 8-year-old son bravely, but sadly unsuccessfully tried to rescue his father from the mangled car. Onlookers tried to out the blaze with fire extinguishers, but were unable to do so. When firefighters arrived they were able to put out the blaze. However, Walker and Rodas were pronounced dead on the scene. Their bodies were burned beyond recognition, requiring the coroner's office to request dental records of the two men to make a positive identification.

A screen grab that began making its way around Twitter on November 30, 2013. It contains a snapshot of TMZ's article links on November 30, 2013,the day Paul Walker died in a car crash. Look at the bottom article link and summary, it says "2 days ago" meaning it was published two days prior to November 30, 2013, the date of the deadly car accident that claimed Walker's life. TMZ has some explaining to do. TMZ has since deleted it from their site.

Ironically, TMZ's archives contained an article about Walker's death two days before it happened, which led to many publicly asking what is going on. One of two things happened. In the past, TMZ has engaged in article backdating to claim scoops and may have backdated it too far.

Paul Walker and Roger Rodas

TMZ is on their own software blogging system, not apart of a major blogging platform such as Blogger or Wordpress. The Judiciary Report's blog is on Blogger's system and the blogging service sets the same time and date for every blog it hosts, accompanied by the time zone. TMZ is free to set anytime they wish, as its their own software and platform.

A sad quote Paul Walker once issued, which ironically now sums up his death due to traveling in a speeding car

I've seen TMZ backdate articles. For example, one reads the main page of TMZ in the morning and by noon, newer articles appear, but with earlier time stamps that the ones you read in the morning, all in an effort to claim they were first in breaking a scoop. It is unnecessary, as TMZ has legitimately broken a number of stories.

Paul Walker as a child

Solely due to TMZ posting a story about Walker's death two days before it happened, another theory floating around online is the Hollywood "Illuminati" (Kabbalah) was involved in Walker's death (Virginia Rapper Shoots His Best Friend In The Head As An Illuminati Sacrifice In Order To Be Famous In Hollywood). As the Judiciary Report has stated in past columns well before Walker died, TMZ is apart of the Hollywood "Illuminati" whose members have been dying left, right and center under tragic and mysterious circumstances indicating foul play (Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, Tupac, Notorious BIG, Keith Carradine, among others).

Walker is survived by his 15-year old daughter Meadow Rain Walker, from a relationship with Rebecca McBrain

Over a decade ago, "2 Fast 2 Furious" was filmed near my former house in Miami. It was a pleasant surprise to leave home for the day only to see Walker behind the wheel of a car driving by, while being directed and filmed by director John Singleton. Walker looked amazing in the scene. This is how I will remember him. The Judiciary Report sends its condolences to the families and friends of both men.

Movie Review - Vehicle 19

Title: Vehicle 19

Year Of Release: 2013

Review Date: July 31, 2013

Rating: R

Running time: 85 minutes

Box Office Gross: N/A

Site Rating: 4 out of 10 stars

"Vehicle 19" is the action drama starring actor Paul Walker, who plays an ex-convict named "Michael" who visits South Africa to see his girlfriend. He picks up his rental car, but the paperwork doesn't match, as an employee gave him the wrong vehicle. This is where his nightmare begins.

Spoiler Alert: Michael finds a gun and mobile phone in the car and shortly after, a woman who has been bound and gagged. The woman, Rachel Shabangu, is a South African prosecutor who has been kidnapped for uncovering a sex trafficking ring, targeting underage women and adult females. After some conflict, he rushes to get her to a judge to tell her story, but is chased the entire way by corrupt law enforcement trying to stop them.

"Vehicle 19" was an interesting film. In starts off somewhat quietly, but has many twists and turns along the way and a few surprises. It is not an airheaded film, too superficial to appreciate. However, it could have done without the profane language to reach a wider audience.

Beyonce Leaks Information About Her Sex Life With Husband Jay-Z

 

Beyonce and husband Jay-Z

Due to rampant online claims her husband, rapper and chronic copyright infringer, Jay-Z, has been cheating on her with a number of industry women such as Rihanna and Rita Ora as well as groupies, singer Beyonce has been leaking information about their sex life that we the public really didn't need to know.

The latest tidbit Beyonce leaked claims she likes tying him up (bondage) which made me laugh. I'm sorry, but all I could think was, "Tying up what? His face?" As many have publicly stated, Jay-Z is not considered a pretty dude (inside or out). But you can't tell him that. Judging by some of his raps, he thinks he is handsome like Denzel Washington.

As the phrase goes, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I don't know how Beyonce does it. I'm trying to be nice, but if I were married to Jay-Z I'd need a strong sedative at night - one strong enough to make me hallucinate and think he looked like Lebron James or Paul Walker (LOL).

Disclaimer: the site does not endorse taking sedatives until you hallucinate. It was just a joke.
