Harris was paralyzed and was never prosecuted.

He obviously committed multiple felonies in his flight from police. Why was he not prosecuted?

Yes, he sustained horrible injuries due to his actions.

He should still be prosecuted.

Money.
It would cost money to prosecute him. If you got a conviction, it would cost even more to incarcerate him - special needs, don't ya know.

In addition, what ambitious prosecutor want to prosecute a quadriplegic? He'd look like a monster.
