There ar no accidents only crashes that happen for a reason! If a felony had occurred during the chase or it was the reason for the chase then the felony-murder rule may apply.

I think it is a stretch though, regardless.

Don't be so sure on that one.

And Don't be surprised that if they can't convict on Criminal charges that the families won't sue in Civil Court either.

felony murder? how is a guy in a car being chased by police negligent for 2 copters colliding with each other? he didn't hit either one did he? I just don't see it. Those choppers are responsible to now what is flying around them. Wussification of America, if a judge aloows this bull, that is all it is. I feel for the families of the victims but if the news didn't sensationalize this stuff it wouldn't happen either, let them sue the news stations.

you are right, it's a stretch

Civil suit??? Cripes.....like that will ever happen! Monkeys will fly out of my butt before any charges or civil suits result from this copter crash against the idiot who was in the chase!
