they haven't been able to actually say that it was him because his family hasn't been notified yet...they're on a commercial flight.

what does this have to do with baseball besides that he was on the yankees you fuckin asshole.


there not supposed to let out info until the wife and his one kid found out but news reporters and there stations love this shit.

he didn't have a license by the way, he had like 75 hours or something and he was flying with an instructor. this is from cbs. mayor bloomberg had a huge interview that i saw and i repsect him for not letting out the info on who it was, its seriously messed up that for one, it might not even be cory lidle and two, he wife and son don't know.

the FBI says that he was the only person on board. The other person to die must have been in the building or something.
