ACClddlt Continued from Page 1 mation officer, said in vestigators were conducting a mechanical analysis on the car Wednesday to determine if automotive failure contributed to the cause of the accident. Investigators are checking the steering and brake systems, as well as other mechanical items. Birr said. In addition, results of blood tests run on the driver of the car, Wendy Cook, Ifi, of Spr ingfield. are expected today. Birr said. The report probably will not be made public until after the investigation is com plete, he added. However, Assistant District Attorney Bob Gorham said he does not expect alcohol or drugs were involved. “I don't think well find anything, to tell you the truth — it's kind of a mystery." Gorham said. "There will !*• some resolu lion about this case at the end of the week. I think — at least in terms of eliminating some of the possibilities. There are some things we'll probably never know." Gorham added According to Birr, criminal charges, if any. will not l>e filed against Gook until all evidence and mechanical results have been reviewed by the district at torney's office. Birr would not comment on whether Gook faces criminal prosecution. “We know, of course, she (Wendy) was driving without a license — that seems to !»• very cut and dry. Hut that still, in and of itself, doesn't account for the fact that there was an acci dent when? three people died." Hirr said, "We need to conduct an in vestigation that will tell us if (hare was anything that may have impaired her (Wendy’s) judgment We need to see if there was anything mechanical ly wrong with the vehicle, and there's a whole bunch of things we've got to go through yet liefore anything Is resolved.” Hirr said. Gorham put to rest specula tion that Cook’s mother. Judith Cook, could la? held criminally responsible for the accident. However, Judith CtM>k could la; charged with a violation for allowing her daughter to use the car. Gorham said. Bernard Sclikson. father of Konni l.ynn Selikson, could not !>e reached for comment at his home in Seattle. Repeated calls to the Cook residence in Springfield yielded no comment or additional infor mation regarding the case. ASUO Continued from Page 1 after several veers work with SPA.
