Vehicular Deaths
“Pursuits” at such speeds that they are likely to result in the death of someone are hunts for humans. Our police state accepts our deaths and reprimands our language when we notice. My word for it is not incorrect. https://t.co/oYG5jBrOJx

Open records summary :
Janesha Harris, 35, and Jamarea Keyes, 38, were third parties driving down the street who were killed by a police chase crash when their BMW was struck by a 2006 Cadillac STS that was “speeding” due to being hunted by police.
Police claim they called off the chase and turned off their lights and sirens. The crash occurred less than five seconds after the sirens and lights were turned off, as is commonly the case.
Jasmine Mines, an attorney representing the Keyes and Harris families, said the newly released video shows inconsistencies with LAPD’s initial account of events.
“Even though the sirens were off, the officers were clearly still in pursuit. Initially, the LAPD officers stated they retreated and there were 15 seconds from the time they retreated to the time of the collision that ended in fatality. LAPD stated they were not engaged in any chase,” Mines said.
The dashcam video shows the officers chasing the Cadillac through at least four intersections with their lights and sirens on.
