This has been on the news. Here are the cliffs as I understand it:
4 young black men coming back from a hip hop concert got in a crash because a tire blew out. The driver didn't have a valid license. They were boozed up. The police found 2 of them and the two gave misleading/incoherent info to the police so the police didn't know there were 2 more people. The 2 who were not found died instantly so even if the police had located them originally nothing could have been done to help them. The parents of the ones who died are looking to blame the cops and try to get free money because their kids made stupid decisions. |

I'm only reporting what I heard. They said the coroners office performed autopsies and concluded they died on impact. If you watch CSI you know there are ways to determine time of death.

Hammond, IN is right down the street where the mother who raced the train and got creamed from a train coming the other way. That community is saying that its the train lines fault becasue they didn't have a gate there since it is a poor community. Kid made a poor desicion and killed to of his friends. Now they are trying to pass the buck. |

this is the first i heard about this, but if the body was indeed found 10 feet from where the car came to a rest...then there is no excuse in my eyes that the other kids were not found.
whether the kids were incoherent or not, if the cops have ANY reason to think that there could be more people injured somewhere (and still alive for all they know) isnt it their duty to launch an all out search? i would be pissed off too. yes the kids were drunking and underage, but the cops seemed to have played down all their comments to help find their other friends. the cops suggested that maybe the kids dropped off the other kids and forgot about it...but then the body turned up 10 feet from where the car came to rest ...someone isnt doing their job in my opinion.

One of them blew just barely over the limit. The other about half the limit. They neglected to mention which one was driving the car. These douchebag cops were too busy harassing these kids to do their job, which is to help and protect people. They didn't even listen to the kid when he told them two of his friends had been ejected! Like he was so "delirious" that he wouldn't know wether or not there were two other passengers in the car? Gimme a friggin break. Those kids could have been alive down in the ditch in need of medical attention. |

there is no excuse the kids were not found. whether or not the kids died on impact the cops on duty at the scene should be punished greatly. At the time of the accident, those cops had no clue if the kids were alive or not, they didn't even look. They shouldn't be able to hide behind the excuse "they died on impact anyway" to get off of this obvious mistake that could have led to 2 kids to unnecessarily lose their lives. |

He didn't have a drivers license. He had been drinking underage. He was involved in a accident that killed two people. I am more inclined to believe that he was just a bad driver lost control and crashed. His uncle (who has a agenda) claims the bodies were 10 feet from the accident site. Could he have fudged his numbers a bit? The don't say which kid had what BAC becasue they are minors. And according to the coroner the boys were dead on impact. Please keep in mind that Gary IN is a racially charged area with blame being passed onto the police everyday. |

Reading is hard to do. The police went to the scene with the fire department and searched the area at 3am. they recovered the car, did a full investigation, and found no other bodies. The kids couldn't tell them definitively if they were even in the car. Again hindsight being 20/20 the kid can claim anything he wants. |

10 ft away...in a bush? 10 ft away....in a depression? Just because someone is 10 ft away at night doesn't mean you will see them, especially if they're wearing dark clothes. Also, it sounds like the vehicle was off the main road in a ditch....emergency vehicles aren't going to be able to illuminate a ditch that well, so you'd probably be depending on handheld lights. Bottomline, visibility during daylight makes a huge difference in SAR.

I haven't been 17 for along time but I said some pretty stupid stuff to cops, school admins, and many others back then.
In Gary, a black kid lying to protect his drunk friend from police contact? It's possible. |
