Mayfield indicted!

Mayfield says he is innocent: Former race car driver Jeremy Mayfield says the new criminal charges against him are "baseless" and suggests he's the target of a conspiracy involving NASCAR and law enforcement officials. Indictments by a North Carolina grand jury released Monday charged Mayfield with three counts of possessing property stolen from businesses, and a fourth charge of obtaining property by false pretense. The charges follow a November raid on Mayfield's Catawba home after which the former NASCAR star was charged with possessing 1.5 grams of methamphetamine. Mayfield, 42, has issued a statement through his attorneys saying he is innocent. "For some reason, the district attorney's office simply ignored our offers to explain the sources of the items seized from my property and chose, instead, to indict," Mayfield said, according to the statement. "We do not know if there is any connection between the NASCAR lawsuit and this investigation but, based upon the evidence disclosed to us already by the district attorney's office, it appears that the Catawba County authorities have been coordinating with NASCAR officials."

typical reaction of someone who is hooked on drugs...cant face reality,and allways blaming his ilegal activities on others...usually law enforcement for making rules that go against what he ( the drug user )needs to get high...ive known guys like him all my life,,,steal and ruin other peoples lives,and when they get caught for theyre ilegal activities ,they claim theyre done nothing wrong,its everyone around them "setting them up" and making thier lives diffacult to live as they wish to live..
 
Dave, I think you explained it very well. It's sad to see someone, anyone for that matter, destroy their lives and the lives of people around them for the sake of an addiction.
