Your article concerning Nick Andrews is incorrect concerning whom chased whom. Mr. Prokasky testified at the first hearing that HE chased a vehicle thought to be Andrews. Andrews DID NOT chase Prokasky. I think it is very important that these article be factual.   Thank You

Mr. Andrews,

I have extensively reviewed the official transcripts from both the October 22 and November 13 preliminary hearings.  I can find no segment in which Mr. Prokasky testified he began the chase.  Mr. Prokasky said very little other than "I don't remember" or "I don't recall."  Consider this exchange between the witness and Special Prosecutor Jim Shirley:"  Q:   Do you recall chasing -- following after him in your car?"  PROKASKY:  No sir."

Because of Mr. Prokasky's memory loss another passenger in the car, Timothy Quinn, was brought in to testify at the second hearing, the November 13 continued preliminary hearing, and he did  testify that Mr. Prokasky initiated the chase.

With regrets,
