    Just feed him to the lions!!! Typically for something like this California would use the “murder under special circumstances”law!

    They should but what the recent action by the governor putting a moratorium on executions I don't think it would do much..

    At least if he gets life in prison, he can't continue to put the general public in danger.

    I hadn't seen the rear camera footage of this yet. Thanks for sharing. Unbelievable how fast these things happen.

    I agree with the charges of murder two. That pickup was pretty much all out 110+ on that camera. Fast enough to where I cannot measure it in time on the rearview camera one.

    The forward camera version is unavailable.
     
    Lepton1 Thanks this.

    It's moving along nicely until just past midpoint. Mr Top speed flies past then you see the mess he made on the entire pavement.

    That will be a coffin car in the salvage yard, covered after the body has been removed. It's only good for it's weight in scrap metal.

    I am not used to seeing modern cars destroyed so comprehensively by other pickup trucks or cars. Used to be in the olden days it's a semi capable of that kind of shearing and crushing.

    I will repost both the short version and the long version of the forward facing dash cam...by the way, kudos to the cammer. He was obviously paying attention to his rear view mirrors and saw it develop.

    I got it, it works for me when I follow it to you tube. Part of the problem is on my end.
