28. I heard about him years ago from Florida posters on another message board
who discussed his killing a guy after attending a football game, and driving home, anyway, and never getting into any real trouble.

Just did a quick search to see if I could find anything to back it up:

Rick Sanchez was on local tv (Fox) in Miami before he went national. He hit and killed a pedestrian with his car, but never did any time.

First of all, Rick Sanchez was a Pro Player Stadium, left intoxicated, and hit a teenager who became paralyzed. I do not know that this teen died and I live near the stadium….I remember for years after that, there were flyers all over Miami regarding this kid and a court case.

That’s a huge croc!! I’m in Miami 30 years and my family for 50….and Rick Sanchez isn’t one of the good ones; he is not a *giving* person in the life. He thinks he is above the law (that poor teenager he hit by Pro Player Stadium nearly 10 years ago while HE-Rick-was intoxicated leaving a football game and wasn’t truly prosecuted).....

(Some of these comments are strangely interesting, about a damned creepy half-wit.)

Why won't those mean, old, sniping critics just quiet down?

I mean, it's not like Sanchez ever killed anybody. At least not intentionally. In 1990, he accidentally (and, yes, drunkenly) ran his brand-new Volvo into a fan after a Dolphins' football game in the parking lot of what was then called Joe Robbie Stadium. The victim, Jeffrey Smuzinick, was paralyzed and later died at the age of 35 of complications related to his injuries. Sanchez was never charged with causing the accident (Smuzinick was also drunk) and ultimately pleaded no contest to DUI.
