While vacationing in Ireland with then-girlfriend Jennifer Grey back in 1987, Matthew Broderick accidentally drove his BMW rental head-on into a Volvo, leaving its passengers, a mother and daughter, dead. Broderick had a broken leg. Grey had some of his blood stains on her clothes. “The juxtaposition of that deep sorrow, the survivor’s guilt, and then being celebrated as the new big thing just didn’t jibe. It didn’t feel good to be the toast of the town,” Grey told the San Francisco Chronicle in 2010. “My head was never the same, my ambition was ever the same.” Broderick, after his hospital visit, claimed in absentia, which ostensibly helped avoid any legal charges involving negligence.
I've done intensive research and I think the killer was his wife, Mary. She had been known to indulge in a little 'free love' with local slaves and she didn't want her husband fucking up that arrangement.
