Fantastic Ending

Some stories make you cry, some make you laugh. This is a bit of both:
  • A man driving a stolen vehicle was killed when he collided with a large car carrier on the city's South Side, police said.

    Charlesteen Davis, 75, was clearing snow off her car while it was running when a man jumped inside and drove away. Chicago police say that driver hit several cars before sliding underneath a semi at the intersection of 87th Street and Western Avenue Friday afternoon.

    The car burst into flames. Three good Samaritans tried to save him, but he died at the scene. His identity has not been released.
Sorry about your car Ms. Davis, but damn, we are highly amused.

She will get sued by the family of the honor roll student for leaving the vehicle unattended.

And as usual, the tribune calls the person who stole the car "the victim."

It's just laughable that the trib editors and writers call themselves journalists. Whoever taught them must be so disappointed.

A sad ending. He probably was only borrowing the car to go get medicine for his sick mother.

The offenders family will sue for insurance money on the car. Pay for pain and suffering.

I'm sure his "estate" will sue both the rightful owner of the auto and the truck driver/owner. Momma should be chiming in soon with her lament that junior just stole the auto to get to a job interview.

Sometimes justice is served, hope the car owner has full coverage! Wonder if the thief tried to make an Allstate insurance commercial mayhem style! No loss another future/present IR number gone!

These are the kinds of stories that do my cynical, jaded. police heart good.
My girlfriend doesn't understand how I can find joy in a young man essentially burning to death. It makes her look at me in a different (I Don't Even Know You) kind of way. I've long given up trying to explain to her how I got this way...How 20 plus years OTJ has shaped my view of society.
I simply told her that "Had the lil piece of shit not stolen someone's car, he'd still be alive". "Fuck Him!"

Poor old lady now has no ride! You know liability insurance won't pick up the tab. CPD should start a go fiund me page for her to show, you know, that we agree black lives matter-especially the ones of law abiding people

If he's a Chicago Public School student will the taxpayers of city pick up the tab for his funeral. Will he also qualify for the discounted burial at Mt. Hopeless Cemetery? Oh wait, he was burned to a crisp. Never mind.

Justice!
Would have like to have been to capture the last few seconds as he slammed into the truck and burned.

I recently purchased a dash cam for my personal car. I filtered thru all the cheap made in china dash cams and finally came across a Garmin dash cam.

The best 200 bucks I ever spent. 1080hd, gps coordinates, date, time and speed.
Purchased it to protect myself from all the road rage incidents. You can mount it anywhere in your vehicle and no one knows its there. It would be invaluable evidence if someone makes false allegations against you while in your car. Of course, you don't have to say anything if you screw up while driving.

But, I purchased just in case.

A red light camera and some B-B-Q sauce would've made all the difference.

Ten degrees below zero -- rocord cold for this date -- and you can't even blow your nose without seeing your car disappearing around the corner.

Stay warm and safe, all.

It really is too bad about the elderly lady's car, but I will also confess that the mental image of the f__er shouting "WHOO!" just before encountering Mr. Semi has me chuckling, too.

Thank God it wasn't a gasoline truck or hazmat load...just another 20,000 pounds of hair weaves and tooth whitener and bogus Nikes comin' in...

Thanks, too, for the human decency and good intentions, go out to the "Good Samaritans" who tried to help at the scene, at quite some risk to themselves. They can't have known what actually happened blocks away.
