I assure you Alachua County the home of UF is probably not DeSantis country.

Alachua County Sheriff Emery Gainey was appointed to the position by Governor DeSantis in September 2023. Florida's Eighth Judicial Circuit State Attorney, Brian Kramer, is an elected Republican.

They were doomed kids. Fourteen to sixteen years old, already wearing ankle bracelets, stealing a car and fleeing from the cops at 111 mph. If their lives hadn’t wound up like this, they would eventually have brought some other disaster upon themselves, and probably others.

I am very sorry.

But the driver could have taken out any number of innocents driving around at 111.

His passengers quite possibly bear no blame.

Anyway they were stupid kids but the cops needed to stop them.

This is why after 2026 every vehicle sold will have a software kill switch like onstar or lojack that cops can trigger from behind the car just coasts to a stop then. Teens bail out and the K9 units get a fun time chewing up some teens. I love watching On Patrol live when they bail out and the K9 is on them in seconds you cannot out run German Shepherd hellbent on getting a chuck of that a$$. It’s just good TV ha.

Yeah, obviously, they had to be stopped before innocents were killed.

Their baby mommas and sperm donors have, probably, already contacted Benjamin Crump, hoping to cash in on the ghetto lottery.

My favorite pursuit interdiction technology is made by the Swedes it’s a metal harpoon in the front grill it extends out to form a spike that the cop rams into the trunk or rear door. Once it penetrates steel barbs come out so it cannot come back out. The cop then jacks his brakes full stop and the cop car drags the vehicles to a stop even at full throttle on the front vehicle. For added LOL the spike is hollow and is hooked up to a tank of CS gas the real stuff with active nerve agent not just respiratory agent in it. You can flood the vehicles interior with it no human can stay inside your instincts take over every one flees then. I saw a live demo of this tech way back when I was a fedlevel LEO it’s impressive tech.

Well, you have these politicians suing Hyundai and Kia, because they say that they are too enticing and easy to boost, forcing black youths steal them.

The GoFundMe page for one of the felons has this:

On April 21,2024 tragedy struck our family yet again. Our 17 year old Son Lawrence Jr's life was tragically cut short as he and 3 others lost their life in a car accident.We lost our oldest son exactly one month prior and buried him three weeks ago.

It sounds like the family has only so many kids to give over to criminal behavior.

“two of the teens that were killed in SUV were wearing ankle monitors, while three had active warrants, reports WLBT. Some of the occupants also appeared to be wearing ski masks.”

That is a kind gesture, but, unless there was a gun found, it’s hard to fathom how any of the teens could not have volunteered for the deed.

We had a similar crash in the Philadelphia area a couple of days ago.

Multiple teens and an unborn child killed.
