Family members of Taconic crash victims Michael and Guy Bastardi were back on television yesterday, escalating what has become an ugly feud with Diane Schuler's husband Daniel. Margaret Nicotina and Roseanne Guzzo returned to The Today Show to publicly respond to the continued denials of Daniel Schuler (seen this week on Larry King Live) and his lawyer Dominic Barbara that Diane Schuler was drunk and stoned when she drove the wrong way in the crash that killed eight. After Barbara was speaking in terms implying a plot in the Schuler investigation, now the Bastardis were the ones shooting back vague accusations. Nicotina said that Daniel Schuler knows what really happened the morning of the crash before hitting the road, despite his claims that there was nothing unusual or off about his wife that morning. She said, "It makes me angry. It makes me angry that he keeps denying it ... I wish he would just admit [she was drunk]." Bastardi family attorney Irving Anolik called Daniel Schuler's insistence for his wife's body to be exhumed because he believe the autopsy to be wrong "totally outrageous" and "an insult to the American public."

At this point, both families are behaving badly.
I don't really feel "insulted" by it...
(sigh)
IMO, Dominic Barbara is just milking this for money and publicity and he is not serving the interest of Daniel Schuler. Other than getting the family of the victims P/O'ed and Daniel Schuler bad publicity, what does it serve?
Duh, lawyer!
Well, he does seem to plumb new depths...
The truth is always elusive. It takes a lot of hard work to get to it.
And none of this nor any lawsuit will bring any of their family member's back.
There can be no winners, yet they all insist on continuing to play this BS game.
You need to be reminded that Jaycee Dugard's father was suspected of killing and abducting her and now 18 years later we find out she was kidnapped by that bastard philip garrido. You don't know all the facts. This case needs more investigation.
I can't wait till they exhume the corpse and unmask the body a la Scooby Doo.
And then Daniel Schuler can say "and I would have gotten away with it too if were you pesky brats and your dog!"
Sometime after leaving the campground, Diane Schuler stopped with the kids at a McDonald's where various eyewitnesses stated that they noticed nothing out of the ordinary about her behavior. At that point, she didn't appear to be drunk, high or visibly impaired in any way. This a very strange (and sad) case.
