These girls are dead because the cops decided it was worth risking their lives over a property crime
Cop escalated car chase in Baton Rouge yesterday, blew through a red light, cop slammed into a third party car, killing 2 teenage girls, critically injuring brother of 1 of the girls. Cops then blamed it on the man whom they were chasing which is routine.
