I'm a little undecided about this one. The report indicating foul play was independent of him and he hasn't tried to use this as a legal defence yet. But this does play all too nicely into his hands from now on I reckon.
The fact that the man has no recollection of the accident and cannot explain why if he hadn't been drinking he had no recollection, just makes me question his integrity. He attributes the assassination attempt to his corruption investigations he was conducting at the time. Hmmm.
A police dossier shows that McBride's brakes appear to have been tampered with twice in the run up to his crash in 2006, according to Talk Radio 702's Eyewitness News.
McBride is on trial on drunk driving and defeating the ends of justice charges in connection with an accident near Centurion in December 2006.
According to Eyewitness news, another vehicle - a yellow Mazda - was seen travelling at high speed, allegedly forcing McBride’s car to swerve and overturn as a result.
It is understood the alleged attempt on McBride's life was the result of his investigations into dodgy land deals in Meyersdal.
