Wilson Attorneys representing the mother of a recent college graduate who died after his car was struck by Wellington polo mogul John Goodman ’s Bentley are launching their own investigation into the crash that killed her son . Jack Scarola , a partner at the high-profile West Palm Beach law firm Searcy, Denney, Scarola, Barnhart and Shipley, said the firm is starting from scratch its own probe into the death of Scott Wilson , 23. International Polo Club Palm Beach founder Goodman suffered minor injuries in the Feb. 12 accident. The Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office and State Attorney are conducting a criminal investigation. They’re not expected to decide before May whether charges will be filed against Goodman. Said Scarola: “We will independently and thoroughly

investigate. It’s highly unlikely that there’ll be a single lead that we won’t follow.” Scarola said the firm has been representing Wilson’ mom Lili in other matters. He said the firm’s involvement “could include civil action arising from the death.” Goodman visited two parties before the crash , and authorities seized credit card receipts showing Goodman paid for 18 shots of booze less than an hour before he allegedly blew through a stop sign and struck Wilson. And Page2Live revealed Monday that fire rescue workers failed to find Wilson’s body in his car, which was partly submerged in a canal after the Bentley hit it.
