6 Year Old Killed In Road Rage Incident

The fact that these types of incidences continue to happen and are increasing tells me that we need to step back and get to the root of why people are taking to guns.

Exactly. why do they consider physical violence of anykind an actual option.

But in the end it is the individual who voluntarily chose to pull out their gun and shoot at that driver/car. Can ponder why forever in the end it's a criminal who committed that heinous criminal act.

@ win231 I don't think I'm missing the point at all. The poster was, at least in part, blaming the mother on her child's death because she flipped off the other driver. She reacted badly, yes, I don't condone flipping off other drivers, but she certainly doesn't deserve any blame for what some jerk did to her child. Haven't you ever reacted badly to something some other driver did to you? I have and I am certain everyone has at one time or another. We are all human. But we shouldn't expect to get shot or killed for it.

When another driver is reckless, cuts me off, almost hits me, or does anything stupid, I always react - by quietly saying the word "Asshole" repeatedly. The other driver will never get a finger, or anything he/she would notice from me.
I'm smart enough to know there are psychos out there (with & without guns) & antagonizing a psycho is not smart. Even without a gun, the other driver has a weapon even more deadly - their car.

I agree. There is absolutely nothing to be gained by confronting the other driver, and a lot to be possibly lost.

I heard on the radio news this morning that two people have been arrested. I haven't searched for any details.

OMG, fingers crossed, Remy!

Thank you for letting us know.

The reward grew to $450,000 as of last week.

MORE cameras are needed in our world, LOTS more, cameras everywhere!

Can't wait to see the mugs of the two low-life cowards!
 
Update:

Suspects, Marcus Anthony Eriz, 24, and Wynne Lee, 23, were arrested at their home in Costa Mesa, and "are expected to be charged with murder," the release said.

According to the Orange County Jail Roster, Eriz and Lee are both being held on a $1 million bond and are scheduled to appear in court Monday.
 
They won't "Rot in prison" for as long as you might think.
First of all, he will never be charged with 1st degree murder; they'll never prove intent. They couldn't even prove intent after Derek Chauvin's crime - which was far more intentional than this dirt bag's. That takes a life sentence off the table.
His attorney will say "My client only intended to damage her car; not kill the child. He didn't even know there was a child in the car."
He'll probably be convicted of "Reckless or Negligent Homicide" or "Manslaughter" and "Negligent discharge of a firearm." And regardless of the sentence, with early release, the prison time he will serve won't amount to much.
And the girlfriend probably won't be charged with anything; her attorney will say "She had no control of her boyfriend's actions."

Yes, reality sucks. So does our justice system.

I hope your hypothesis proves wrong.
 
Wow ! Tapping the brake pedal. That definitely deserves a few rounds. From a young woman with 2 kids in her car. Sounds like a responsible, possibly legal gun owner carrying out her God given rights.

She'd have been out-gunned if the Pathfinder crowd had been "carrying".

NRA wins big. People (and the Pathfinder folks) will flock to the stores for weapons, or additional weapons and double up on ammo supplies. Is this part of making America great again? More people trying to waste each other?

If someone tries to shoot or kill A, misses, and kills B, that is what is known as "Transferred intent", meaning it's just as if he meant to kill B to start with. What application that has in that state's law is unknown?

That's an older photo - not their booking photo. In that photo, he's wide-eyed & look like a typical meth head: (Found It)

I suspect his wide-eyed look is the result of his brain processing the fact that bedtime bubba is going to waiting for him.
