Street Racers Who Killed 8 Spectators at ANOTHER Street Race Indicted for Manslaughter
Forkin' crazy. The spectators had no business being out in the middle of
the road, but OTOH the killers who hit them should not have been driving 110 mph at 4 AM with lights off!!! This should be a bigger story than the Tenn shooter but the press has ignored it. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/25920599/ Two men indicted in street racing deaths Eight spectators died when they were hit from behind updated 5:16 p.m. MT, Tues., July. 29, 2008 UPPER MARLBORO, Maryland - Two men were racing on an isolated stretch of highway when one plowed into a crowd gathered to watch another illegal race, killing eight people, prosecutors said Tuesday. Authorities said for the first time that two drivers, not just one, were involved in the gruesome February crash as they announced charges against Darren Bullock, 20, and Tavon Taylor, 18. The men were each charged with eight counts of vehicular manslaughter, along with reckless driving and street racing. If convicted, they face up to 10 years in prison on each manslaughter count and fines for the other charges. Bullock and Taylor were not part of an organized race that fans had gathered to watch along Route 210 in Accokeek, about 20 miles south of Washington. The spectators were hit from behind when they spilled into the road after two other cars sped off. After plowing through the crowd, Bullock’s white Ford Crown Victoria ended up down an embankment with one of the victims inside. The car had a crumpled hood and a partially collapsed roof. Authorities don’t know whether Taylor hit anyone. Bullock and Taylor were driving at about 110 mph with their headlights off, said a county official with knowledge of the investigation. The official spoke on condition of anonymity, citing a lack of authorization to release those details. (snip) |
