Am not going to argue the fact that this dude was an ED-209 and the world is a better place without him.
However the cop showed a lack of common sense that baffles me. Even this article spoke of something I noticed on the video:
“Smith drove at speeds of up to 87 miles per hour on wet roads, endangering other drivers and pedestrians. About 45 seconds before the chase ended, police dashcam video captured Stockley saying, “going to kill this (expletive), don’t you know it.””
On this video I could not see the street because of the weather conditions so how could they??? Call the damn chase off before you kill someone off at that speed at in that neighborhood!! There will be another time to get this ED-209 I mean for real what were these cops thinking? They can call of the chase, I have heard of these things happening if it is just too dangerous. The cops even wrecked their SUV once in this pursuit.
I mean I really hate to play Monday morning quarterback with cops but from the dashcam I can clearly say they were like taxes and just did not know when to quit.
