A fifteen-year-old kid...in a stolen car...weaving in and out of traffic across a double-yellow line on a rural highway...at 80 to 100 mph...in a car WITH A DAMN DOUGHNUT SPARE ON? My God.

The extra information puts the chase in a different light. The officer started the chase then backed off assuming that the Statesville police would set up spike strips. That makes sense, doesn't it? How does an officer NOT give chase to a car doing double the speed limit driving recklessly?

Unbelievable. Some people get found by Darwin. Some people go looking for Darwin. This kid got Darwin's address off the Internet and camped on his freaking doorstep. The biggest shame is that he took six other young people inside with him when the door opened.

Most likely no shame. They must have known he was a criminal and approved. They probably aspired to be like him one day.

Apparently people seem to think that when the police see a speeding car they should not pursue it. What, just let it go?

Hmmm, the people that think this, often seem to be the relatives of the "victims" in the speeding accident!

Unbelievable...
