I can't say I'm a NASCAR fan, but I will always remember Earnhardt's death because of the wrangling between the Earnhardt family and the Orlando Sentinel, which led to the Florida Legislature exempting autopsy photos from the Open Records law. Essentially, what had happened was the Orlando Sentinel wanted to look at the autopsy reports and photos as part of its investigative reporting on the tragedy. Understandably, the Earnhardt family objected to the photos being released to the newspaper because they were concerned, despite promises being made that the photos would be for its eyes only, that the photos would be leaked to the public.
