that happened here in FL a couple years back, an FHP camaro was chasing a biker on I4 near orlando. FHP lost control or something and ended up slamming into trees at 150-160mph, killing the officer. The biker was found 150miles later getting close to St. Augustine, and was charged with murder!

This reallt sucks, but shouldn't be a murder charge for the biker. The cop is the one who decided to put himself in danger, and lost control of his vehicle.

it shouldnt be murder, manslaughter if any, but it was not inherently his fault so imo shouldnt be manslaughter either, but he does need to be held accountable for HIS actions (this is in reference to the FL incident).
as for the DC incident, the statements lead me to believe the riders wreckless riding caused the pileup to begin with, which in that case i believe he shoudl be charged with manslaughter.
this just goes to show how running from the police puts more people in danger than just the biker. yes the police officer was chasing, but would not have been if the rider had not run to begin with. on a side note, i didnt hear them say it was the officer who died, 2 people who were traveling togethor were killed.....so i dont think the officer died unless i am mis-assuming.
