Marlin receives threats blaming him--ESPN
Associated Press

Sterling Marlin was stunned when he returned home after the Daytona 500 and found he was being blamed for starting the crash that killed Dale Earnhardt.

"The first thing, you go in and turn the news on and some reporter is on TV saying that ... the vicious tap that I gave Dale Earnhardt sent him into the wall," Marlin said. "You just want to climb right into the TV and pull the guy out of there."

That was just the beginning of the storm.

Monday, the day after the fateful race, Marlin's Web site was bombarded by ugly e-mail. Threats against him and his family were phoned to his race shop in Mooresville, N.C.
