Uber driver pleaded for her life before she was killed in Monroeville, dashcam video shows

An Uber driver begged for her life and pleaded that she had four children before a Penn Hills man fatally shot her, according to a transcript of dashcam video.

Allegheny County police on Wednesday night charged Calvin Crew, 22, with killing of 38-year-old Christi Spicuzza, who was found dead in Monroeville this weekend.

Mr. Crew is charged with criminal homicide, robbery and tampering with evidence.

In a criminal complaint, police described how Mr. Crew allegedly used his girlfriend's phone to order an Uber and held a gun to Ms. Spicuzza’s head as she begged him to reconsider.

On a video retrieved from Ms. Spicuzza’s dashcam, investigators found a video of her arriving to pick up Mr. Crew on Feb. 11. He entered the vehicle and produced a handgun, pointing it at the back of her head, the complaint says.

He told her to keep driving. When she reached back and felt the gun, she responded, “You’ve got to be joking,” the complaint reads.

Mr. Crew reiterated that he had a gun, and she told him that she had a family, the complaint says.

“I got a family too,” Mr. Crew said. “Now drive.”

Had she been armed, and had the attitude that her life was more important than her attacker's, things likely would have turned out different.

Okay, she's armed. He's sitting behind her with a gun drawn.

How does this play out where her odds are 50% or better?

Here’s what a majority of the public fails to understand or refuses to acknowledge. No matter what lawyers, judges, psychiatrists, psychologists, sociologists, and other “apologists” say regarding the causes and motives of those who commit such crimes, there will always be only ONE civilized way for the state to deal with such offenders, and it’s the one you have alludeed to in your comment.

Captain Negro with his super impulse control powers strikes again...

These idiots are so f**king stupid, and with heartbreakingly tragic results.

Had he just robbed her and left, the cops would've marked the crime down near the bottom of things they gave a sh*t about and even if he was caught, he'd have likely been released without bail by some Soros-bought DA.

Instead, he murders her in cold blood, for no reason whatsoever, generating a manhunt by law enforcement.

It happens time and time again. Their inability to refrain from horrific acts of senseless violence while committing otherwise mundane offenses ensures that they always get caught.

In all likelihood it’s only going to get worse. The primary thing one should do is prepare.

Remember the Tennessee couple tortured and murdered by black monsters in Knoxville? We are in a cross between hell on earth, Black Mirror, the Twilight Zone and South Africa.

The usual suspect.

Another white supremacist in blackface. Another example of why Biden has declared White Supremacy to be the biggest terrorist threat to the country.
