You're late to the party, John.

I certainly agree that the average Joe accountant would have been charged sooner, probably within a day or two. I already said that earlier in the thread.

You have a valid point in that the whole incident speaks to suspiciously delayed prosecution without any answer as to “why” from those who should be held to a very high standard.

Oh, I’d enjoy driving that thing immensely.

So, did you read my follow-up comments, LexW?

Sure, I’ll give it a contrarian NP for that color and interior alone. It’s amusing to see a 38 year old grandpa car still exists in such pristine original shape.

To be fair, being a cop is literally the only civilian job where you might be put in a position where deadly force is necessary and legally justified.

So, did the union make any statements defending the guy’s actions?

Well, of course this cop should end up in prison, as should anyone doing such a heinous and reckless act.

So, the question is, why did the L.A. County prosecutor take so long to charge?

If it was “Accountant charged with murder after killing 12-year-old in 95-MPH crash in school zone” would you even bother writing this story?

It’s a short walk when you start with the perspective of “I hate bikers” to doing something that demonstrates your hatred of bikers, especially if one of them does something that you don’t think appropriate from your sanctimonious tough guy in a car perspective.

“i also hate bikers and their blatant disregard for traffic rules.”

Not just any minivan, it needs to be an FCA minivan with Stow-N-Go seats, regardless of year or model.

If you want a serious detailed review, Jalopnik is not your place, for the most part.

This.

In Minnesota, the zipper merge.

1st. Gear: Legacy manufacturers change rebates every month. Sometimes incentives go up and people who bought the week before get cranky.

Funny, there’s a lot of Jeeps that are way more expensive than any current Alfa.

Well, they are about to start shipping the Tonale which should bring some needed volume to the brand. For me, the drive is absolutely worth the risk.
