    No stolen truck is worth the danger of a high-speed pursuit, and in this case, a woman’s life.

      Yeah just let them go after committing grand theft auto. I’m sure it was just a mistake and he will turn himself in out of guilt.

        Drones and helos exist…they could just follow them with one of those and pick them up that way. It’s not a hard concept to see these high speed chases are super dangerous.

          these are criminals we are talking about. they will drive into a populated area and run away without anyone getting to see their face. In nyc its pretty notorious that criminals will run into their apartment complexes and no one will snitch on them, making them impossible to track down.

            An “impossible to track down” perp who stole a truck, is far less a tragedy than the death of Sharon Ault. No stolen vehicle is worth the danger of a high-speed pursuit.

                  At any cost. We get it. You fantasize getting to kill whoever gets in your way as you act as cop, judgy, jury and executioner. I hope you get in your heroes’ way some day.

                    You’re a little crazy. I’m neither a cop, a judge or an executioner. I’m just some dude on the internet with the opinion that we shouldn’t let criminals free because of freak accidents.

                  In all your comments, you’ve expressed only your concern about a Ford F150, no worries at all about the late Sharon Ault.

        I am unconcerned with anything except the death of an innocent woman, in a wreck caused because of a police chase over “grand theft auto.”

        Again, no stolen vehicle is worth the danger of a police chase.
