I agree. It's no one's business outside of the immediate family.

One good thing about never getting on a jury is that I have never had to look
at murder or accident photos. I wonder how those people stand it.

of the crash, there's a black car that veers into a yellow car and both hit

Earnhardt's car the black one?

Yes. The one with the #3 on it.

There's some element of mystery here. NASCAR initially said that Earnhardt's
seat belt failed, which clearly didn't do Bill Simpson's company any good and
potentially exposed him to a lawsuit. Now there's some evidence that the seat
belt was cut sometime after the accident, perhaps by a rescue worker.
At first, IIRC, the actual cause of death was thought to be from Earnhardt
hitting his face and jaw into the steering wheel. Now I understand it's
suppsed to be from a broken neck caused by the deceleration. Which might, and
I emphasize MIGHT, have been prevented by the neck supports that NASCAR has
been under pressure to mandate.
Clearly the photos can't be very pretty. Equally clearly the lawyers are
taking a hard look at those photos in order to figure out who they can sue.
This one might keep getting more and more involved -- stay tuned.

record, then so should Dale Earnhardts. If nobody's photos are part of
the public record, then they should remain hidden.
Just because he was a public figure and has millions of dollars, his
death is no more traumatic to his family than anyone else's death is to
theirs.

governments and courts. Whatever happened to "Justice is blind"?

Sometimes not very well. I know that in the Charles Ng case in CA, some of
the jurors had to receive therapy for sometime during and after the trial.
It probably happens a lot more than we hear about. Some people are
extremely empathetic and have a hard time dealing with those feelings.
OTOH, some people are not bothered at all.

I'm not aware of any cases in which the tabloids have published
autopsy photos. As for websites, I guess you've never heard of
rotten.com.
It's truly another case of special consideration for wealthy
celebrities. Everybody loved the guy, and they've played this
"sympathy for the family" angle up incredibly well, so it was pretty
easy to ram this legislation through in a big hurry (while the illegal
court decisions delayed matters enough to do so). Meanwhile, freedom
of access to public information ande the ability of the press and
private individuals to scrutinize government tak another hit.

I believe it was either the NY Post or NY Daily News that posted a
picture of a dead John Lennon in the morgue taken by a hospital
employee. Since it was only a head shot (no pun intended) picture and
John was shot in the chest, it didn't show anything gory. In fact, Yoko
later used that same picture in one of their videos. It might have been
the "Woman" video if I remember correctly or it was another song from
either the Double Fantasy or Milk And Honey albums.

If you're talking about MadCow she claims that her mother and her sister don't
like her. She's managed to irritate everyone in alt.obits who has a working
brain a and she got laughed out of rec.boats. I'd say that she's pretty
unlikeable.

That's just your opinion. I do like her and I don't believe everything you
guys are saying about her. It's my right.
But I have to say I don't much like people who try to get others to hate
someone else. I can make up my own mind, thank you. I don't need you to tell
me who I like.

To the contrary, it seems only you and Harry are fixated on MadCow.

There sure are a lot of lockstepped, dull, think-alike reichwingers on the
newsgroup, mostly smug, self-satisfied and, one presumes, delighted there
are still underclasses for them to stand upon...
