There's more at the link, including that he didn't offer the video to police, but posted it on Facebook and then tried to sell it.

LORAIN, OH (KTRK) --
Police said a man witnessed a horrible car crash. What happened next, just downright cold behavior, according to police.
They explained he whipped out his cell phone to record the teen's final moments alive instead of racing over to help a dying teenager. The man now faces charges.
"I just wanted to educate people to slow down," Paul Pelton, 41, said in a Facebook apology video. "I didn't do that to have some type of gore video."
Police say Pelton began recording video on his cellphone seconds after a car crashed into an SUV, a house and a tree and then caught on fire. Both 17-year-old teens suffered major injuries. One of them later died at the hospital.
Detectives say Pelton mocked the teens in the video, repeatedly calling them "idiots." At one point, he opened the doors of the vehicle and filmed the boys inside. A neighbor is seen running to help the teens, but police say Pelton himself never offered any aid.

A biker. Not surprised, since most are trash. Prayers to the family.

What charges is he facing? Is there a law that requires a person to help out?

He probably doesn't even own a bike. Just thought the shirt was cool.

Jeez. He sounds like a quality individual.

Horrible person, but this was funny:

Pelton also now claims he didn't try to sell the video. Instead, he says he offered to give the video to news organizations for free in exchange for a donation to his private charity.

I hope that guy live the rest of his life wondering if that kid would have survived had he put the fricking cell phone down.

Let's be honest, if they were injured enough that they both died relatively quickly, what do you think an untrained idiot like this would have been able to do?
