Or something else???
Either way, this is terrible....
Baby dead in police chase tragedy in Constitution Hill
I am sure that some will call for an end to police pursuits.
Not me....
Imo, the human slime that run from police have no regard for public safety or decency so I don't see how banning pursuits improves that. When they catch this guy (or guys) - and they will catch them - what will they be charged with? Seems it might be "Dangerous Driving causing death" - which according to wiki carries a maximum term of 14 years in the event (among other things) that the assailant was trying to escape the police.
Well maybe it needs to be a lot longer than 14 years.
Various US jurisdictions have what they call "Felony Murder" - where "an offender kills accidentally or without specific intent to kill in the commission of a felony, the offender can be charged with murder. And, any participant in such a felony criminally liable for any deaths that occur during or in furtherance of that felony".
So maybe it is time to up the ante on people who have no respect both for our laws and for the fine men and women or our police services that uphold them for us.
