I just caught a bit of it. Pretty amazing story.
He and his wife were tragically murdered by one of his business associates. He and that associate had been involved in putting on motorcycle and offroad buggy races in in-door stadiums. Seemed the partnership they had didnt work from the start.
Anyway, someone else out there in EO land might want to add a bit more detail. JD
