Supposedly dom rep has the highest mortality rate from car accidents in the world. The traffic laws are more then lax ......they arent enforced at all. My wife is from the same town he is. We know some of his family. Damn shame.

But still. Cultural differences aside, posting a mangled body to millions?

Carlos Martinez posted a picture of his dead body on twitter. And then that picture of the car. You don't want to see it. But it's on twitter. I'm scarred for life now. Like what in the actual frick.


I can't believe he did that either, and to think with what happened to his Twitter earlier this year.

Spanish media reports from the Dominican Republic said that Taveras and his girlfriend, who was identified as 18-year-old Edilia Arvelo, were killed in an accident. Dominican media websites posted photos of a 2014 Chevrolet Camaro which Taveras reportedly was driving at the time of the accident.

According to police in the Dominican Republic, the accident involved just the one vehicle and occurred on a highway between the beaches of Sosua and Cabarete in Puerto Plata, Taveras’ hometown. There were unconfirmed reports the accident occurred in a heavy rain when the car ran off the highway and struck a tree.

Search Carlos Martinez in the top right search bar. Once the page loads, on the left side click "photos", look at the first photo on second row (assuming twitter works the same for both of us).

Would post image but I am pretty sure that would lead to a ban.


Edit: and yes posting of morgue images is more culturally accepted in Latin American countries

So heartbroken.

Haven't had to deal with this since Darryl Kile and I was just a kid then.

This is devastating.

Take a step back man, try to disengage your emotions from the fortunes/misfortunes of pro athletes. There are greater needs for your energy in your own family's lives.

Damn, I can't believe that happened.

Terrible to hear. These kind of moments are always surreal to me. When a young, popular athlete/celebrity who seems immortal to us goes so quickly.

As for the picture, it's not in the photo section for me but I just scrolled down and found it. I dont know what it is but pictures of dead people usually dont bother me as much as it bothers some. I'm definitely not trying to brag though. Just, if you know you can handle seeing stuff like this, you're probably fine here.

While I understand what you're trying to say...I think your completely wrong...

You don't understand how sometimes in mysterious ways you can feel connected to guys like Oscar and it makes you think about life situations and you get emotional behind it...

My dad has a camero, so that makes it weird for me. You never know what could happen man.

Damn that picture is pretty FUBAR. Can't believe CMart tweeted it out.

What an idiotic thing to do.

The picture isn't that graphic. Still wish I wouldn't have looked it up. Anyone notice the beer mug emojis in the last instagram post?

RIP OT

Pic makes you wonder if his air bag deployed.

Possible he wasn't wearing a seatbelt and got tossed as well. The Instagram pic posted earlier didn't show him wearing a seatbelt.

Man what a waste. So young.
