Stupidest shite I've seen lately...

Tremendous danger to the public, piss-poor driving by those cops...

Just unbelievable...

Was the perp a murderer or kidnapper?

Somewhere on Roku, you can find "Chase" with 24//7 chases. Mostly in Los Angeles.


It was filmed in Houston when they were building one of the freeways there.

I was gonna post something smartass about posting a 30 minute video. But I’ll be damned if I didn’t hit play and then sit here and watch the whole thing. That was incredibly entertaining.

That dude drives like a madman but man he got the better of those cops like 15-20 times.

I did think it was weird that the female got off with no charges though. Clearly she knew him and was with him willingly (at least initially).

Also, whoever edited that video did a fricking EXCELLENT job. That was great and informative the entire time.

The Arkansas State Police have a very aggressive policy for pursuits.

And they will probably maintain that policy until something terrible happens. Trying to PIT a vehicle going in excess of 90mph on a busy road when the driver is weaving in and out of oncoming traffic to avoid the PIT is a very stupid policy that will eventually kill innocent people.

ETA: And they followed him into oncoming lanes on more than one occasion. That won't fly in most any other state or district. Arkansas needs helicopters badly.

He repeatedly put them in situations that, had they followed him, would have put innocent bystanders at risk. He knew what he was doing. They did what they could.

I loved the moment one of them just drove their cruiser into the ditch full of water. WTF did they think was going to happen in a Charger?


and then the other one got locked inside the plant and had to wait for them to unlock the gate

and then another one tried to pit him and then ended up going off the road himself, and then he's like "F**K!"

They were getting desperate when they wanted to get someone with a shotgun to get in front of him and blow out the radiator... problem was, they couldn't get in front of him

I was referring more to their 8 or 9 failed pit attempts, officer getting stuck in the ditch, another one getting stuck inside the plant, etc.

If they were so concerned about the bystanders they would've just called off the pursuit, especially after so much time had passed

Yeah, it's really weird because she lied to the police about his name. How do you avoid charges for that in itself?
Something strange happened for that to occur.

Dude is a menace. They should hold him indefinitely until he can pay back every cent he damaged.


He’ll be damn near 100 years old or more if he serves sentence/s to full term. For him, that’s as indefinite as it gets.

Dude shouldn't have even been free to begin with. The prison over crowding results in guys serving 1/4 of their sentence and being turned lose.

He should have been charged with reckless endangerment

They would have backed off to a safe distance and let the chopper track him.
And you figure these guys had a chopper laying around, but forgot to call for it?
I was a fan of the he shotgun solution. A load of birdshot to the radiator would have worked very well.

A few thoughts:
1. She had serious injuries and they grabbed her out of the vehicle which could be argued to have aggravated the injuries. Liability...
2. She gave a false name but how do you prove that he did not give her the false name along the way?
3. They likely cut a deal for her testimony against him and figure that her injuries were enough consequences for her role. They might be right in this thinking.

Hell, they followed him into most of those situations. They even tried PITing him at speeds of 90+ with a line of damn civilian traffic immediately downstream of the pursuit, even though they should have known damn good and well that there wasn't a chance in hell of it working against that dually. They wouldn't have had to roll that cocksucker for him to have killed a few innocent people, all it would have taken was him losing control at 90+ and plowing into the oncoming traffic.

These chucklefricks would be fired in many places if they pulled that shite, but in Arkansas it seems to be encouraged.

ETA: There also seemed to be no one of actual authority on the radio during the entire chase. It was a clusterfrick with no one providing direction or clearance for action.

I have issues with the bond.

On a dangerous perp like this there should not be bond.
