The crash happened around 6:30 a.m. when the driver of a 2009 Honda Civic tried to outrun deputies from the Zavala County Sheriff’s Office and attempted to pass a semi truck, the state Department of Public Safety said. The Civic collided with a 2015 Chevrolet Equinox, which caught fire.
Everyone in both vehicles was killed, according to DPS. That includes the 21-year-old driver of the Civic, who as from Houston, and his five passengers. Some of the passengers were from Honduras, department spokesman Christopher Olivarez said in a statement. The two people in the Equinox were from Georgia.
The police were worried about people’s safety, so the police killed everyone, including Innocent bystanders.
It’s policy to not engage in high speed chases like that in many places just for that reason.
Robocop was a documentary.

I wanna know when the hell LEOs are gonna learn that a high-speed chase is NEVER worth 8 lives.

But they do it on TV!
Isn’t that where cops get their vocational education?

Perhaps we shouldn’t punish people for crossing imaginary lines
…and definitely not capitally punish them
or throw them into concentration camps
It’s ok, we’re renaming them to focus groups. Much more humane sounding.
Absolutely brutal and completely unnecessary at that. The level of risk to everyone on that highway was never gonna be worth it just to catch some migrants.
A few ways to help with human trafficking if people really cared.
-
Legalize prostitute and heavily regulate it with stiff penalties for those that do black mart deals.
-
Streamline the immigration process and develop a non us citizen hotline/website to report crimes. Protect them from local and state prosecution for immigration status after reporting a crime.
Everyone wants a better life but when you make it harder, you create a dark alternative.

Holy shit that was a brutal wreck. Both vehicles mostly disintegrated. I hope no kids were involved.
And ofc the cops won’t say how fast they were going.
If you’re gonna be a cop and engage in behavior that endangers others, you better be able to own up to it.
Houston is the 2nd most trafficked city in the US.
It’s an open secret and there’s so much money being passed around, nothing is really being done about it.
Bake em away, toys!
