Crow Competes In Bronze Medal EffortSaturday, August 28, 2004 - 08:15 AM
The United States comes out of the pool with a bronze medal in team synchronized swimming in the summer Olympics.
U.S. team member Tammy Crow had to put aside some rocky feelings to be a solid part of the performance. She reports to jail October 25th to serve a three-month sentence for vehicular manslaughter here in the Mother Lode. In February 2003, Crow was behind the wheel of her boyfriend's Nissan Pathfinder near Sonora when it slid out of control, crashing into two trees. She only broke some bones, but both passengers -- her boyfriend, Cody Tatro, and 12-year-old Brett Slinger, a student of Tatro's -- died.
In January a judge agreed to postpone her sentence until after the Olympics.
Russia took gold and Japan got the silver.
