Jayson Williams Slightly Injured In Car Crash
January 5, 2010
Former New Jersey Nets star Jayson Williams was slightly injured after being involved in an accident at 3:15 a.m. early Tuesday morning after his SUV veered off an exit ramp and struck a tree.
Police said Williams may have been drinking before the crash and refused to submit to a sobriety test that officers tried to administer at the crash site.
Williams was in the passenger seat of his black Mercedes-Benz SUV when officers arrived and told them someone else had been driving. But witnesses told police they saw him in the driver’s seat. Officers added that no one else was in the car.

As you are aware, My Jayson, Jayson Scott Williams is on trial for the accidental shooting of Mr. Costas Christofi. We are forever remorseful for the loss of life that occured in our home. Our sympathy deepens for the family and friends of Mr. Christofi and for every person’s life that has been affected by this accident. We are truly sorry for the unforseeable accident that occured on Feb. 14, 2002.
Many of you have been angered by the false allegations and misrepresentations levied against my husband – it angers me too. Yet I know that these lies, innuendoes and distortions shall be eradicated through our trial and I will allow our attorneys to appropriately do this.
However, the slanderous and inflammatory character assaults against Jayson cannot be fully corrected by anyone other than me – his wife. Jayson is an amazing man, whom I love dearly. He is a great father, a caring son and a loyal friend. He is generous to a fault. His charitable works are too many to mention and many are only known by the people he has touched with his kindness. Jayson gives of his time, talent & resources because it makes him feel as good as the recipients. Jayson loves life, he loves people, he loves to laugh and sometimes he cries – but most importantly, Jayson loves God. He is a God-fearing man, and through our trials and tribulations walks closer to God than he ever has before. This is My Jayson Williams.
