I’m sure this will spark a “should police pursue fleeing suspects debate”
I actually dont think they shold, specifically for this reason. Puts way too many innocent people like this women at risk. I mean in this case, the cop pulled him over for speeding, was getting this mother killed worth making sure he didnt speed anymore?
the suspect in this case is a total piece of shite and deserves to be in jail. Typically with these cases they are pieces of shite.
Sorry it is just not worth it. Not only are you putting the public at too much risk but also those officers at risk. Get the plate number and let him go. Put a helicopter on it if you can, other wise get him at his address or families.
Cant get him there, oh well. not worth getting a model citizen like this women killed to serve a speeding ticket.
obviously things are different on violent suspects.

Latoya does not allow NOPD to pursue suspects if they run. Ask NOLA residents how well that is going. You have to chase these criminals or it’s completely lawless.
yea since the city has gotten sooooo much worse. dude the fricking city has been a shithole since the 80s and consistently ranked top 5 in murders per capita since then.
getting in a high speed pursuit over a fricking speeding ticket is insane. Stop trying to justify a beautiful innocent soul being killed over something like a speeding ticket.
Yea the suspect is a complete piece of shite and hopefully he spends rest of his life in prison over it. But unless the suspect is an immediate danger to the life and health of the public, you are creating more danger by chasing them.
get the plate and get his arse in a day or two when he goes to leave the house. If he gets away completely, so be it. Getting a criminal is never ever worth taking an innocent life over. Its just not.
High speed chases are the same as no knock warrents and way too risky.

THERE WAS NO HIGH SPEED CHASE FFS.
The guy sped away from the cop after being pulled over. He drove a mile or less down the interstate before he exited and slammed into this woman. By the time the cop got back in his car and came upon the crash, the guy had already fled the scene. This wasn’t some high speed GTA chase through a neighborhood.
What do we want police to do when someone, who has a history of being a criminal, speeds away from being pulled over? Just shrug their shoulders and move on?

I think there's a conversation to be had on high speed police chases, but this case isn't really the one to use. From where he was pulled over to where the incident occurred is only about a mile apart, and it's all interstate. There really wasn't much a pursuit. This guy is just a stupid POS that hopefully is caught soon and has to face the music.

WTF is wrong with you?

I have a feeling this guy was probably wasted and took off. Knowing that section of the interstate, he probably thought he could get to the next exit and disappear down lakeshore.

She grew up with my Daughter, she has a twin sister Brandy. I coached them on my daughter's rec. league basketball team when they were about her daughters age. So sad. Hope he resists and the police end it right there, or doesn't resist and they still end it, I would.

So you would have included a “surprise, surprise, surprise” caption under a white suspect’s picture?
If he was covered with TATS and looked like a thug, probably so.

I grew up with them as well. Both Robyn and Brandy were great girls and brilliant as well. Tragedy doesn't begin to describe this situation.

This won’t make the national news for obvious reasons
I am surprised the news doesn't report this as another reason cops shouldn't chase bad guys...the bad guys are never responsible for getting themselves shot or hurting innocent people

In our local neighborhood forums, there are actually a few pieces of human garbage that are advocating that the guy shouldn’t have been pulled over to begin with because local
Police shouldn’t be pulling over speeders on the interstate. That goes along with their argument that their shouldn’t have been a pursuit of any kind.
So think about that for a moment. There are actual functioning human beings out there that don’t want police to do anything when they see a law being broken and then give incentive to run away from the police.

Anyone else shocked the two Gump liberals are only in this thread to whine about perceived racism?
I assume this includes me.
It was clear he meant something racial, he just then added the copout so he could hide behind it. Nothing else makes any sort of sense in context. But feel free to defend him.

Yep.
I dont give a frick about BLM. Its a terrorist organization that uses extortion to enrich themselves.
Cops need to quit these forces where you have a high chance of dealing with a black person. They have already proved truth doesn't matter.
Let people self segregate, its about the only solution at this point.
