It began as a normal Uber pick-up for the mom of four moonlighting as a driver. That is until the man in the backseat put a gun to her head.
According to police, that man was 22-year-old Calvin Crew, of Penn Hills, Allegheny County, who has been arrested and charged in the shooting death of Uber driver and mom of four, Christina (Christi) Spicuzza.
Crew faces charges of criminal homicide, robbery and tampering with evidence, according to authorities, according to KDKA-TV in Pittsburgh, which reports:
The dash cam footage recovered by police shows, 38-year-old Spicuzza begging for her life – ultimately to no avail.
This, after Crew put a gun to Spicuzza’s head about 10 minutes into the ride last Thursday.
Crew told her to “keep driving,” according to the criminal complaint cited by KDKA.
Spicuzza responded by saying, “Come on, I have a family.” Crew replied, “I got a family, too, now drive.”
Spicuzza’s pleading didn’t end there. The dash cam footage shows her saying, “I’m begging you, I have four kids.”
The video ends with Crew saying, “Do what I say and everything will be all right,” KDKA reports, citing the complaint in the case.
But it wasn’t all right. Far from it.
In a press conference this morning, police told the media that it’s unclear what happened from the time Spicuzza’s dash cam was shut off and until her death, but it must have been “terrifying for Christine.”
The body of the mother of four from Turtle Creek, Pa., was found last Saturday afternoon. Spicuzza died of a single gunshot wound, police said without elaborating.
GPS records provided by Uber show the pair drove through several Allegheny County neighborhoods. Along the way, phone records showed that Spicuzza’s cash apps were accessed, KDKA reports.
According to police, robbery was the main motive in the killing. They said there’s no known prior relationship between Crew and Spicuzza.
Spicuzza and Crew then drove to Monroeville, where police say she was shot last Thursday night. Her body was found three days later in a wooded area there.
At last report, Crew, who was taken into custody and locked up at the Allegheny County Jail Thursday night, was still awaiting formal arraignment in the case.
lol
A buddy of mine has a friend that is an Uber driver. He told me his neighbor came home one night with four bullet holes in the car. Apparently he picked up a passenger that had some enemies.
Yikes! I do DoorDash. I’m thinking of quitting that. They’re asking drivers to do the cash option. No way. I’m never exactly sure where I’m going, and there are too many rundown rentals sprouting all over, now. Planning to move to a small town next year in Mississippi.
A wood chipper is too good for him. Damn, evil is running rampant.
I too never consciously considered or saw race whatsoever, for my entire life, and living where white folks are in the minority. It wasn’t until Obama blew the lid off of that Pandora’s Box. Now everything seems like it’s race,race,race. Even here. They are throwing gas on the fire
Heck I took a cab in Philadelphia from the train station to the Omni Hotel one time. Never used a cab before. You can bet I got plenty nervous when the driver left the city and began driving on the thruway.
That would have definitely have freaked me out as well.
Yep.....Obama never did anything good for the black race except...”how gas on the fire” ...for the people absolutely nothing to improve their culture nor the population.
I’ll never forget when Michelle was wearing those awful African style clothes...and then brought pop African art into the Whitehouse. She never grasped her role as First Lady to all Americans and neither did he as President.
Oh I took a Bus once to see the small city I had just moved to. The driver kept letting people out until I was the only passenger left. It was taking so long even though we were in the city. I was later told the driver likely enjoyed me sitting behind his seat...that it’s known among drivers to do this for newbies...and if you’re reasonably attractive and well dressed all the more.... And they can spot those who aren’t accustomed to using the bus.
It's better to be safe than sorry. It is well known that many cab drivers will pass right by them instead of stopping. To the cabby, it's a game of Russian roulette.
Point number 4 implies that he was intending to kill somebody.
That makes it first degree.
It was an embarrassment, cringe worthy. The Mooch made the White House look like a pimp's crib, the set of a Superfly blaxploitation flick.
I still don’t forgive my parents for having me take two buses into New Orleans everyday on Canal Street to attend an all girls, Catholic High School. Then two buses back through the inner city.But they had to impress the Jones’.
Crowding, no air condition often, and a lot of times no place to sit, and weirdos rubbing up against you. One black guy sat next to me, and started moving his fingers underneath my skirt.
Telling me I felt, “warm”. Black bus driver did nothing. I got off safely, but felt sick about it a long time.
Figures. Another low IQ violent black retard.
The SOB should get the electric chair, in a perfect world.
They’ve reversed and taken society back to the segregation mindset.....defeating their efforts in how they’ve gone about it ......they aren’t thinking or doing much more than complaining.....forever victims of their own demise now.
True. It's a thing, feral vermin, not human, and not worthy of life. He should be snuffed out like squashing a roach beneath your heel.
His girlfriend was the one who ordered the uber drive, and they found a text where she told him something like, “if you get caught, I’ll deny it”, or something like that. Nothing will probably happen to her, either.
Darrian Brown who murdered 4 year old Cash Gernon has been declared incompetent to stand trial, and will be sent to mental facility for years. No justice.
When you try to make the Historical White House into something it's not
I prefer American culture
Not African culture like this sh1t
