Lawsuit getting ugly

A few days ago the Ward family lawyer, Mark Lanier, responded to Tony Stewart's version of events that occurred on the night of August 9, 2014 calling Stewart's response appalling & that Stewart sped up & ran Kevin Ward Jr over. Everyone has seen the dreaded video of that night. Tony Stewart responded to the lawsuit saying that he didn't see Kevin on the track until just prior to contact & that Kevin tried to make contact with the car. My question is this. Who does that? Who tries to stop a sprint car that's going 40 MPH? I have an ugly feeling that this lawsuit is going to get more ugly before it gets better & there may never be a truce between Stewart & the Wars family as long as the Ward's continue to have hate & greed in their hearts.
