Mahoney

Is former U.S. Rep. Tim Mahoney’s midlife crisis not over yet?

He reportedly tried to pick up Russian women in a Palm Beach hotspot recently by claiming to be a “retired, respected congressman.”

But while Mahoney acknowledges being at the restaurant, he said he was there for Haiti fundraiser — not to hit on ladies.

A source at the Boys & Girls Club of Palm Beach County’s beachside wingding the other night told me about Mahoney’s recent foray into the Palm Beach hangout Bice.

Remember Mahoney? The 53-year-old slipped into the U.S. Congress in 2006, when the then-congressman-for-life Mark Foley got caught text-messaging sweet nothings to male pages.

Mahoney, who represented parts of Palm Beach County and most of Martin County, lost reelection to current Congressman Tom Rooney after it was revealed that the then-married Mahoney paid off a former mistress to silence her, and was seeing another paramour, Martin County’s engineering boss Kim Roden.

Word is the divorced Mahoney is now seriously hooked up with Roden — but then this little tale below makes you wonder.

Woods (Click on the photo for more)

According to new documents released in the Thanksgiving car crash that eventually brought golf prodigy Tiger Woods back down to earth, Woods’ wife handed ambulance personnel two bottles of pain medicine which she told them Woods took earlier in the day.

The paperwork, released by the Florida Highway Patrol to the Orlando Sentinel today, also shows that Woods’ wife, Elin Nordegren, tried to ride to the hospital in the ambulance with Woods.

The paramedics, however, barred her from entering, saying that the case was domestic violence-related.

The state troopers’ notes also intimates that the hospital where Woods was taken after he hit two curbs then a tree while pulling out of his driveway in Windermere, went all out to protect Woods’ reputation.

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.

Shocking development in the aftermath of the car crash that killed 23-year-old Scott Wilson and injured International Polo Club Palm Beach founder John Goodman: As many as 10 Palm Beach County Fire Rescue responders have been notified that they are under internal investigation.

Their superiors want to know whether the crew from Wellington’s Station 27 followed procedures because Wilson’s body was not found until an hour after the Feb. 12 crash.

Page2Live has been told exclusively that two firefighters searched Wilson’s submerged car, which was upside down in a canal. But the rescuer could not find Wilson in the early morning darkness and gave up the search.In time, fire rescue left the scene when they thought their work was done.

But the jaws of sheriff’s deputies left behind dropped when Wilson’s Hyundai Sonata was hoisted back on the road, revealing his body on the seat.

Said a fire rescue source: “Our guys obviously didn’t look for a body hard enough.”

Fire Rescue spokesman Capt. Don Delucia confirmed that existence of the investigation but declined comment. When asked about emergency procedures for cars in canals, Delucia said: “There are masks and snorkels on the emergency vehicles but the conditions in our canals are bad. It’s so opaque you can’t see your hand in front of you even in broad daylight. Diving on a vehicle is extremely dangerous and difficult.”

Delucia said responders also have the option to call in professional divers, but that wasn’t done, according to my source.

An autopsy showed that Wilson drowned after Goodman’s Bentley went through a stop sign and hit his car, sending it into the water off Lake Worth Road in Wellington’s horse country. Goodman left the scene and walked to a nearby home to call 911. Authorities are still trying to figure out whether alcohol or drugs were involved. Goodman suffered a broken wrist, hired star attorney Roy Black and has been hiding in Miami Beach hotels since the crash. Goodman, 46, has not been charged with a crime.

John Goodman, the embattled polo boss under criminal investigation for his role in a fatal crash in rural Wellington last month, has been shunning friends and business associates since he crashed his Bentley into 23-year-old Scott Wilson’s vehicle Feb. 12, killing him.

But that doesn’t mean that the multi-millionaire Texas trust-funder Goodman has been roughing it.

Far from it.

Now it’s getting juicy!

Booze? Cocaine? Crack? Rehab? That’s nothing compared to the new allegations about Charlie Sheen’s already sleazy marriage to Palm Beach product Brooke Mueller.

Since they were hitched in May 2008, the lovebirds have made it a habit to share their marital bed with extra-marital sex partners, according to a story in radaronline. The Web site alleges that the star of the popular, and wholesome, CBS family sitcom Two And a Half Men and the former Benjamin School cheerleader Mueller may have shared as many as 10 sex partners during the past few months.

Yikes!

One of Sheen’s and Mueller’s “special friends” has been trying to sell to gossip magazines her story about her involvement with the couple. The sex friend will probably find someone willing to pay $40,000 for her story pretty soon.

Meanwhile, things have unraveled for the couple after Sheen allegedly attacked his wife in Aspen, Colo., on Christmas morning. Since then, Mueller has been in alcohol rehab.

And Sheen, who’s facing criminal charges in Colorado, just checked himself into rehab as a preventive measure.

Mueller and Sheen were both recovering alcohol and drug abusers when they met. They appeared cleaned and sober when they came to Palm Beach for the bat mitzvah of Mueller’s little sister.

The couple’s twins are about to turn 1 year old.

Mueller’s mom, Palm Beach socialite Moira Fiore, didn’t return calls. But a spywitness close to the Sheens and Mueller said Mueller has told her entourage that the woman who claims to have had sex with them lied and is simply looking to cash in on the couple’s notoriety.
