I disse dager når det diskuteres heftig i England om voldtektsdømte Ched Evans skal få lov til å spille fotball igjen så spiller Luke McCormick for fullt som kaptein på Plymouth. McCormick har sonet 4 av 7 år for drap på to små barn.
Merkelig nok så var det etter bryllupet til vår Norris at ulykken skjedde!

"Car crash and convictionEdit
On 7 June 2008, McCormick was arrested by patrol units of the Central Motorway Police Group on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving. Returning from the wedding of former team-mate David Norris,[10] McCormick's Range Rover collided with a Toyota Previa at 5.45am between junctions 15 and 16 of the southbound M6 motorway, near Keele Services in Staffordshire. The crash resulted in the death of Arron and Ben Peak, aged ten and eight, from the Partington area of Manchester.[11] Their father, Philip, the driver of the Previa, was taken to the University Hospital of North Staffordshire with fractures to the neck, back, ribs and swelling of the lungs, and a 49-year-old man and his two sons, aged eight and ten, were treated for minor injuries. The group was travelling from the Manchester area to Silverstone in Northamptonshire to watch the World Series by Renault motorsport event.[10]
The following day, McCormick was charged by Staffordshire Police with two counts of causing death by dangerous driving, driving with excess alcohol in his blood, and driving with no insurance. He appeared at Fenton Magistrates' Court on 9 June and was granted conditional bail until 16 June when he appeared at Stoke-on-Trent Crown Court.[12] At this hearing the charge of driving without insurance was dropped against McCormick and the case was adjourned until 8 September and subsequently to 6 October.[13]
On 2 July 2008, McCormick was suspended by Plymouth Argyle,[14] and his contract was cancelled by mutual consent on 22 July.[15] He pleaded guilty to charges of causing death by dangerous driving and driving with excess alcohol, and received a sentence of seven years and four months' imprisonment and a four-year driving ban on 6 October.[16] McCormick served time at both HM Prison Ranby and HM Prison Channings Wood before being released from HM Prison Leyhill on 6 June 2012.[17]"
