    <Passenger in Calif. wreck of rare Ferrari Enzo handed 30 days in jail, probation Tuesday, September 18, 2007>


    LOS ANGELES (AP) A man involved in a high-speed crash that left a rare, $1.5 million Ferrari torn to shreds has been sentenced to 30 days in jail for misleading police, prosecutors said. In addition to the jail term, Trevor Michael Karney received three years probation after pleading no contest Monday to giving police false information in connection with the Feb. 21, 2006, crash, said Jane Robison, a spokeswoman for the Los Angeles County district attorney's office. Karney, 27, was arrested last month after eluding police for more than a year. Investigators said he fled to Ireland after the crash, then sneaked back into the U.S. through Mexico.
    Bo Stefan Eriksson, 44, has pleaded no contest to a drunken driving charge in connection with the crash. Eriksson, who also pleaded no contest to embezzling two other fancy cars and illegally possessing a gun, is serving a three-year prison sentence.

    Authorities said the Ferrari Enzo was traveling at about 162 mph when it hit a pole. At the crash site, Eriksson claimed he had been a passenger in the Ferrari and that the driver, a German he said he knew only as "Dietrich,'' got out and fled into the hills. Karney allegedly claimed he was a passenger in a Mercedes-Benz and that he, too, saw the Ferrari's driver flee into the hills. Authorities later determined that there had been no Mercedes and that Karney had been a passenger in the Ferrari.
