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.

If I were driving for Uber and saw that fare on the street, I wouldn’t pick him up. I’d probably lose my job, but it isn’t worth taking the risk.Sometimes you CAN judge a book by its cover.

“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.”

If it was a robbery attempt why did he kill her? Did she try to overpower him as she was begging for her life? /s

Dont forget his possible accomplice, who the hell brings a gun to a birthday party? oops my bad, some of the paranoid kooks on FR who sleep with a piece under their pillow and cant leave the house without it..

According to the complaint, Crew received a text from his 22-year-old girlfriend Tanaya Mullen that said “[I’m] not going to jail if we get caught.” Mullen allegedly told police that her handgun had gone missing after she had brought to a birthday party for one of Crew’s relatives. It’s not clear whether her gun was the one used to kill Spicuzza.

if it is her gun, she's an accomplice.

I believe there is an all out unspoken war on white folks in most urban areas. I do a lot of work in inner city Milwaukee and I can see it in most young black men’s eyes, it is pure hatred for me just for me being me, an old white guy in a new truck. I used to think that going in the hood in the early AM was safer but not anymore, most of them are up all night and into the early morning. Needless to say, I openly carry my FN on a chest holster and they leave me alone.

Crime in Russia was extreme during the transitional years of the late 80s to early 2000s. If you had anything to steal, you either left the country or lived in fear for your life. Had several friends that were kidnapped or went missing. No explanation to this day. I left when things started to get very bad.

The poverty for many people was grinding. Any savings people had was debased to the point seniors couldn’t even afford heat. Kids would grow up not knowing what chocolate is. During full economic collapse, there were simply no jobs and no way to survive without graft or stealing.

And yes, you would have to look really hard to even find a single dark skinned person. And yes, there were unimaginable gruesome crimes every day that make the nyc stories a joke in comparison. People that grow up in a culture of violence and poverty will be batshit crazy nomatter their skin color...

The “normies” are too afraid to wake up. Even here there are so called “Conservatives” who fail to acknowledge the racial reality of modern day America. Too afraid to be called “Racist”, they lick the boots of the so called “Republican” Martin Luther King Jr and others. Eventually despite their best efforts, it’ll come for them and theirs.

“Poverty”?? Take a walk through any project today and see the luxury vehicles in the parking lot. Kids wearing 200 sneakers and Moms wearing more “bling” then you’d see in Beverly Hills. There’s very little poverty in modern day America, except in rural areas. Stop making excuses for savages.

Paranoid kooks who think they might get shot in the head while doing their job and begging a thug to spare their life?

Hey, give them a break. All those photos of blacks accused of murdering people like this might actually be white supremacists in blackface.

Far from everyone lives that way and that is only what you see from the outside.

I worked on many housing projects as a contractor not very long ago and would have to go into EVERY apartment for some jobs. There are countless families you will talk to that are barely making ends meet and living with partial heat even while working more than full time. They see no hope of getting ahead even when grinding to the maximum. Their kids probably see no benefit in working legitimately when their neighbor “hustles” and has a Porsche.

When I first came to the USA, it was possible to make a decent living as an ordinary worker. I bought a home by driving taxi and not even doing much overtime.

Now many jobs that require college are not enough to even afford the smallest legal housing. Young people even with degrees cannot imagine affording a family.

There are many reasons for this and how to fix it is a whole other discussion. But it is clear the system no longer works for many workers today and the desperation in young people has been increasing every year

I have two vehicles (Thanks Domino's, long story), and am always armed.

There is NO WAY I would drive for Uber or any of those services.

There is a race war going on and one side doesn’t want to believe it. Look up the knoxsville horror. The ruling elites that set up the conditions for this and coddle these criminals never face these threats themselves. Look at pics of their gatherings or organizations they belong to and notice they’re whiter than an kkk conclave. Obviously they don’t believe their own bullsh*t!

I worked in Law Enforcement, in a major Northeastern Metropolitan area for decades. I agree that housing is an issue right now. However this goes back generations, at least as far back as the mid to late 60’s. Once government replaced the Father in most Black families, the die was cast. I’m not going to feel sorry for people who live in poverty and continue to engage in the same behavior that keeps them there. Being poor, doesn’t make you a criminal. Behavior does.

Exactly right. Being a liberal means means never living with the consequences of the policies you endorse.
