    He intended to crash a vehicle. Vehicles are commonly viewed as deadly weapons when used as one. It is not a stretch what so ever.

        No, I just do not believe cops what so ever. At least the angry pigs that love throwing their undeserved power around.

          I don’t trust them either, and I have plenty of personal experience to back that. Experience going back decades, when they were far worse.

          Back to attempted murder, that’s ludicrous. Cop fucked up and crashed, for whatever reason. They try to get away from responsibility by raising a fuss. Been there, done that. I can tell stories all night.

      So if I decide to crash into a tree, do I get charged with attempted murder?

      Even in cases of reckless driving, the charge is manslaughter, proving murder is gonna be hard unless there’s evidence of premeditation

        Deciding to crash into a person is attempted murder. People live in houses.

          They crashed into a place of business (as said in the article) at 1230am. No people are around shops at that time.

          Your argument would never stand in court.

            Is that why the owner and others were still in the building? You’re literally making shit up that doesn’t even apply here.
