Kid Rock himself has released the following statement via his website:
“I am beyond devastated to report that my personal assistant Mike Sacha passed away today in an ATV accident here in Nashville. He was a member of our family and one of the greatest young men I have ever had the pleasure to not only work with, but also to become friends with. I know I speak for us all in sharing my deepest condolences to his family. I can not imagine how they must feel. Myself, the band, our family, friends and co-workers are devastated over this loss. We were supposed to be back in Michigan today, but I am going to stay here with Mike until I can bring him home to his family. We’ve already been contacted by the press asking if it was me who was in the accident, so I want to stop any rumors before they spread. I’m asking everyone to please respect our and his families’ privacy in this difficult time. RIP Mike. We will never forget you, my friend.”
I can’t imagine Kid Rock could face any legal ramifications for this–it was an accident, Sacha was an employee and belonged on Kid Rock’s property–but these tragedies can be very messy for all involved, so we’ll have to wait and see.
Our condolences go out to Sacha’s friends, family, and coworkers.
