Eminem's Ex-Wife Kim Mathers Says Her 2015 DUI Accident Was Actually A Suicide Attempt (Audio/Video)

Last October Eminem's ex-wife, Kim Mathers, was driving her black Escalade on a road in Macomb, Michigan when it ran into a ditch, hit a light pole and flipped over. She was trapped inside the vehicle and had to be pulled out by paramedics. She admitted to them that prior to the accident she had drank a fifth of Malibu Rum. It seemed like an open and shut DUI, but the case started raising red flags when the records were sealed by the court.

On Wednesday, March 4, Kim called into Detroit morning show "Mojo in the Morning" to say that she wasn't receiving preferential treatment. According to her, the records had been sealed because the accident was actually a suicide attempt and the records contained medical information, including a psychiatric evaluation."You guys of all people should know that our family has never gotten preferential treatment in any court case that we've had. It's been all over the news ... anything that we've ever done has been public," Kim said. "The reason that I'm upset is because all of those tapes, the recordings from that accident were not played."

"I have been clean for ten years," she continued. "There are things that go on is people's lives and just because people think that we have money, that it makes us happy. But you lose friends -- you lose family. You have no one to trust to even speak to about personal business and it's hard. I sat at then end of a road where I knew no one else but myself would get hurt. Yes, I drank, I took pills and I hit the gas and aimed for a pole. What wasn't played in those interviews is I apologized immensely. I didn't even expect to make it through that. I told them I tried to do this on purpose and i'm so sorry. I never lied to [first responders]. I told them everything that I did. That's why those records were sealed. There was medical information in there. It had nothing to do with the rest of the case."

Kim requested that the records be unsealed.TMZ reports that Eminem has been helping Kim get past this ordeal. She is also receiving professional counseling.

We wish Kim and her family nothing but the best and hope for a positive outcome.
