Murdered Uber driver and mother of four begged passenger not to kill her

A Pennsylvania Uber driver and mother of four begged a customer to spare her life before he allegedly shot and killed her during a robbery attempt, police said.

“I’m begging you, I have four kids,” 38-year-old Christi Spicuzza pleaded, according to dashcam video of the horrific crime, The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported.

Spicuzza, of Turtle Creek, was found dead with a single gunshot wound to the head in a wooded area on February 12 in Monroeville, according to the Allegheny County Police Department.

She had picked up 22-year-old Calvin Crew, of Penn Hills, around 9:15 p.m. on Feb. 10 when 10 minutes into the ride, he allegedly put a gun to the back of her head.

“You’ve got to be joking,” Spicuzza said when she reached back and felt the gun, according to the dashcam footage, detailed in a criminal complaint obtained by the Post-Gazette.

Just one point about cameras. They should stream to a computer at home, incase they get grabbed by the criminal as happened in this case.

And yet there are those who insist that the death penalty is *never* justified.

That, and they should have partitions in the car. I use to drive a taxi in New York city in the 1990s and I would always absolutely refuse to drive any cab that had a faulty bullet proof partition, and it worked. I never got robbed the 10 years I drove. The ones who DID try to rob me, would just jump out once they saw the partition was closed and locked. I assume this woman felt she didn't need one because she was driving in Penn, but everywhere is dangerous today thanks to Democrats like Joe Biden dehumanizing people.

I read something that stated that he grabbed the dash cam before he killed her. He told police he left the car and hitchhiked home. So that will likely be his defense (yes, I robbed her but I didn’t kill her), and there are those out there who will defend him.

There isn’t any money for partitions and driving for Uber.

Wow then I absolutely would not drive then, it’s not worth it. Uber should at least contribute something to having them installed

They found the dash cam.

He's identified on it, putting a gun to her head.

I live out in the country, an hour south of Pittsburgh.
Generally, most violence in this area is limited to blacks killing blacks in their tribal / criminal warfare.

I got to juxtapose the reporting of the murder of this beautiful White woman with the accidental shooting of Duante Wright, while resisting arrest for armed robbery.

The heinous murder of Ms Spicuzza was carried by the local news, though I’m sure that it will be dropped in a few days.

Just matter of fact reporting.

No interviews of grieving family members, no civil rights attornies to comment on the injustice of it, no one to comment on the societal implications of black on White crime.

No mention of the horror and terror that consumed the last moments of this Mother’s life.

In fact, there was no mention of race or her pain and suffering, at all.

Compare that to the reporting, on the national news, of the sentencing of Kim Potter for the accidental shooting of the violent thug, Duante Wright, as he violently resisted arrest.

Race and social injustice were the predominant themes.

Interviews with heartbroken relatives and “civil rights” shyster Benjamin Crump railing about raicial injustice.

This story will never be reported in the national news, just like the story of the murder of Holly Vedalla, by a black thug, on New Year’s Day.

She worked with my sister.

There will be no marches or demonstrations for these beautiful women, no looting, arson or riots. Normies better wake up.

I know, however they don't have the video showing him pulling the trigger. You and I know that means nothing, and this should be an easy conviction, but he's already told police that he left the car and hitchhiked home. I'm not saying that defense will work. I'm saying that it likely will be used, and there are some out there who will defend him.

Most folks don’t have the knowledge required to set up a stream to their home. Vendors these days have software configurations to help get recorded video up to cloud storage, but streaming to the home requires knowledge and hardware that’s likely not on the mind of most home users.

It finally occurred to me: the left's policies of no bail / low bail / get-out-of-jail-free for minorities is intended to infuriate voters purposely until we demand all guns are outlawed.

A murder like this is infuriating as hell, but the strategy will backfire. It's not guns that will be put away, but those who abuse them.

Blacks / minorities won't like the result once white guilt is drained away and its draining rapidly thanks to all the Soros DAs

I wonder if Uber shows the history/photos of prospective riders? Seems like that info would be privy to the driver who could make an informed decision whether to accept a rider based on rider history, neighborhood, time of year (Rodney King, BLM riot ongoing, etc.).
