Obviously, he shouldn't have been drinking and driving, or speeding excessively (yes, I admit - I have, on occasion [even this morning on the way to work], broken the speed limit). That said, I don't see anybody excusing his behavior.

FWIW, I think that Horton was also on pills at the time of his accident. And his jersey hangs in the rafters at HSBC Arena.
