I have tried do a mysql restart and I still get the same errors any ideas?

Sounds like the crash left the sock file open on the drive and now when you try to start, it is unable to overwrite it. To test, simply go into the directory and if that mysql.sock file is there, issue the command mv mysql.sock mysql.sock.backup and then try to start mysql. If it starts, delete the backup file and have a beer.
