There are conflicting reports on the alcohol involvement in this case.

dead driver of the other vehicle reported blood alcohol concentration = .197, over double the limit. I have not seen any reports on Carters blood level.

[Mr. Scot]

I hadn't followed the story closely but would they even have been able to get a blood alcohol reading on him since he reportedly fled the scene?

I saw a report the he did not have alcohol in his system at the time. How the knew that after he left the scene I do not know. Unless the officer tracked him down within a half hour of the wreck.

Depends on how soon they found him.  Considering the BAC of the deceased I would assume if he were drinking with them it would be detected in his system more than a couple of hours later.  If he had very little to drink it probably wouldn't show up an hour later.

And honestly if it is, what does that say about him?

That he is going to need the money to settle this.

Remove from the board...this dude is a trainwreck waiting to happen

Alcohol metabolizes at a predictable rate.  Just because they cant/didnt test on the scene doesnt mean they cant make a determination hours later.

[Dave Gettleman's Shorts]

supposedly left the scene and return a few hours later and lied to police during questioning

I dont think he was going top 5 before this because of off field question marks...this just confirms those reports and probably drops him pretty far actually.  Wouldn't be surprised if he falls nearly out of the top ten

Where is stated that he was tested?  Reports I have read says "didn't appear to be drinking" by....Athens police.  You don't think the cops knew who he was? Unless they took him to the hospital for a BA or toxicology test, I call BS on this one. He just got to go home after he admitted that he lied to the cops and two people were dead.

My comment was more to the general notion that you dont have to blow at the scene or have blood drawn immediately for a medical professional to say that 8 hours ago your BAC was at X.XX.

 

Dont know the particulars of Jalen's situation and didnt mean to put forth info that was specific to this case

[Varking]

That moves up Anderson to being the best, clearly, player in this draft. If you are the Bears do you risk dropping further than 2 and missing out on him?

Looks like Chicago trading for burns

[ladypanther]

This behavior was such a stupid decision by everyone involved.  Unfortunately it was also very tragic.  Even if he somehow gets out of this with minimum legal consequences (and I do not think he should), do not see how any team could trust this guy.

Leaving the scene?????  He was drinking (my opinion)...and had no concern for his friends.
