On Thursday, on the same day that Rice acknowledged that Rice was the driver of the Lamborghini, a fact that Rice did not acknowledge in Wednesday’s statement, Rice’s attorney, Royce West, told the media that his client’s actions over the weekend He appealed to the media to shift its focus. Instead, focus on his “body of work”.
“Why not portray who he is instead of what happened?” West asked. “It seems as if what you are saying is based on this one incident, so you are trying to define him based on this incident rather than his entire body of work.

I’d like you to see his entire body of work before I say exactly. It’s better that way.”

It’s not surprising that Mr. Rice’s lawyers would want to shift the focus away from his client’s alleged actions last weekend. It is a serious crime to drive a vehicle in a public road race, cause an accident, and then flee from the accident.
