I had to do a bit of searching but they are claiming the person killed was used as a human shield. Dont get me wrong, he deserves to face jail time for his crimes... i just can't help but wonder why he is getting murder charges when it was obvious police negligence that got the woman involved killed....

They shot her ten times

Why is it stupid? This man and his accomplices set actions in motion that got his accomplices and a hostage killed.... But who were the people that killed them? The police... so why is he being charged with murder?

Why was this moved to the political and religious section? Its neither political nor religious...

You're right he shouldn't be facing murder charges, He should be taking a dirt nap right now with the rest of the assholes that perpetrated this crime.

I wonder how many bullets the bank robbers shot.. Seeing how they managed to disable 14 cop cars & an armored swat vehicle, And shot at the cops for over an hour.

hey now the bank robbers were just trying to redistribute money to the poor, they should be allowed to shoot up those trying to stop them!!!!!!11!1

As soon as he took that hostage he took on the responsibility of what comes as a result of the criminal act. If we want to talk semantics, no he didn't commit murder but his crime lead to a death. Should at least be manslaughter.

Regardless of your personal opinion, he didnt kill anyone. The police did. I ask again, with the definition of murder in mind, whom did he kill?

This i can agree with, but lets not forget that the officers involved in killing the hostage have faced no penalty what so ever. How is this justice?

Dunno, reported it for spam. This could potentially be a debate if it wasn't set up as "thrill seeking".
The source given by the OP lacks evidence and seems to imply that the bank robbers, are more efficient at disabling cars without killing ppl, than the police.

Trigger crazy officers were send on additional training, both driver and shooter pleaded guilty, case closed.

Same old news, better reporter:

Likely through the vehicle. I don't have all the facts, but that would be my assumption.

We get a lot of these threads. Most "newsy" things get moved here, which is fine because we do a lot of newsy stuff.
