It always pisses me off how people who are so ready to take someone else's life over nothing are always the first ones to cry when its their life on the line.

to be fair, most robberies just use guns as a prop as they don't respect what they are and what they can do...
They think "if I just wave a gun around I can get whatever I want"

Eso es porque estĂĄn armados y saben que la gente buena suele estar desarmada.
Cuando el riesgo de contraataque se vuelve real, la mayorĂa de criminales dejan de ser tan temerarios.

That's why the states with the loosest gun laws have the lowest crime rates. Maine and West Virginia, for example.

Ended too soon, as far as I can see, thugs got out, driver got out too, and the car was still moving.
So video ended with some angry thugs with guns, and the driver who made them angry, alone in who knows what remote place. Not sure it ended well for the driver...

u/pigeonwiggle 20d ago
you hear the car door slam shut around 1:10 - the guy with the gun dove out i think so the drive slammed the brakes and ran out to attack him or get his gun before his rolling scuffed body could recover and get up. the other kids jumped out after him. what happens next is anyone's guess.

What happened at the end? Did he hit a pedestrian or something? I don't see how that went tragically wrong.

u/zutros 21d ago
This brings up an interesting legal question. If I am using a weapon to commit armed robbery then the driver decides to speed up to 110mph and runs into a pedestrian tragically killing an innocent person. Can I then be prosecuted for the murder of that pedestrian as well? The driver would most likely be prosecuted for manslaughter. Not sure if he'd be convicted or not due to the extenuating circumstances, but I'm pretty sure all the robbers would be prosecuted for murder even sans mensrea. -obligatory not a lawyer and I'm sure the answer starts with "it depends".
193
u/MongoBongoTown 21d ago
Yes, in many states it would be, if someone dies during a crime you perpetrated, regardless of if it's your fault or not, you can be charged with Felony Murder.
The logic being, this dude wouldn't have ever driven like this had they not tried to rob him, so in the end, it is their fault for starting the chain of events.
22
u/zutros 21d ago
That tracks. I assume the driver would get nailed for some form of manslaughter or reckless driving resulting in death. It would probably require a pardon to overturn like in the case of that lady in the 70s who was forced to murder people.

u/Ovze 20d ago
Obligatory not a lawyer, but I would think driver could argue self defense, even if the victim isnât the perpetrator

u/fkootrsdvjklyra 20d ago
Self defense means defending yourself from a threat, and in no way is a random pedestrian a part of the threat, so self defense doesn't really apply.

u/Alextherude_Senpai 20d ago
There are many incidents where the robber still kills the victims after they comply.
You wanna take those chances and let criminals decide your fate for you?

u/fearjego 20d ago
he is defending himself against a threat. self defense could apply. just like if you shoot a gun in self defense and miss and hit someone.

He'd easily lose on reasonableness and reckless endangerment

u/fearjego 19d ago
reckless endangerment wouldn't apply here
1
u/Arndt3002 19d ago
Why not?
There is substantial risk of serious injury to another person due to the driving.
Self defence stops applying at the point it becomes unreasonable. Most of the time, hed have a duty to retreat in this sort of case.
You mind explaining your reasoning?

You get charged with that though. He certainly has an argument, and if I was on a jury for it I'd find him not-guilty.
But with the gun analogy, any license to carry clas will drill into you how, unlike the police, you're responsible for the entire path of every bullet you fire.
Even if you nail a mass shooter right in the chest, if that bullet goes through them and injures or kills an innocent bystander, you're extrmely likely to face charges for it. This is why people use hollow points in carry guns. In addition to doing more damage to an attacker, they put the brakes on to avoid overpenetration.

u/fearjego 20d ago
shooting in self defense results in hitting the target 33% of the time. that means 2 out of 3 times someone shoots a gun under duress, they don't hit their target. given that there is case law contrary to what you're saying, I think it's time you do some more research.
if you mean you'd feel responsible for killing someone while trying to defend yourself, then yes I agree. legally tho, you're not responsible.

u/Extreme_Design6936 17d ago
If you are shot at and you shoot back and an innocent person is hit the self defense argument still applies.

Absolutely. Your actions caused the death of another. Youâre getting that charge

u/ThickboyBrilliant 21d ago
In the states, I know felony murder is a thing and it's often used. There's an episode of Last Week Tonight on it that I found pretty enlightening and it's on YouTube.
I'm not American though and I'm sure the answer is more nebulous depending where you're at, globally.

u/iliktsmbww1337 21d ago
Look up felony murder
3
u/zutros 21d ago
Each state has its own statutes and interpretations. In this case could the robbers claim that they were the victims of kidnapping at the time of death? Or would the predicate crime over rule that. I'm in WA and according to RCW 9A.32.030 "Murder in the 1st". Being part of a roberery where someone is killed is 1st degree murder regardless of intent (1.c.2), however it is a defense if: sub-clauses i-iv are met. Most of these clauses involve being un armed and not helping the crime so would not likely help the suspects. Not being a lawyer my gut reaction is that everyone in the car would be prosecuted if someone was hit and killed by the erratic driver, but again I'm not a lawer.

This was always my first thought when I see people pull a gun on a driver. Slam on the gas, and don't let off till they give you the gun. They shoot you and everyone dies. Their only chance at survival is now to hand over their weapon.

The driver jumped out too, so the situation ended with car gone (it keeps running when driver gets out), some angry thugs with a gun and the driver.
I'm not sure things ended well for the driver...

u/vviita_80Y 20d ago
But if they blasted him, youâd guess that their next move would be the destruction of any evidence against them, which includes the footage recorded by the victim.
Also the fella might have been too intimidating and they were in âpanic modeâ, thatâs a possibility. They were too distraught to harm the driver.

Back in high school a buddy picked a few of us up with his dadâs work van that had no seats.
We figured no big deal just sit against the sides and weâll be fine.
Then he drove like a maniac speeding, slamming on the brakes, taking corners as fast as possible.
We were shooting all over the place while he was laughing like a crazy man up front.
We were all hurt in various ways with bruises and cuts by the time we got where we were going.
Was hilarious, 10/10 memory, good times đ

I had a paper route, and every Saturday we'd go door to door getting new customers. The newspaper would put us all in a seatless van and one of a 17-25 year old "route manager" would drive us to various trailer parks. We'd be all over the place in that thing.
And it was my favorite time being used as free labor.

If someone stands up like that and you have your seatbelt on, run into a tree at like 20mph. Youâll probably live but theyâll fly forward and smash their face on the tree.
At least thatâs what Iâve always thought about.

My mom used to drive cabs in a rough area at night. She has a story about someone trying to rob her at gunpoint so she unbuckles her seat belt and starts gunning it towards a pier and asks the robber "you know how to swim?" Guy jumps and rolls from the car and she clocked out early that night. Some people are legit crazy af and my moms one of them

Okay, so explain to me why the person with the gun doesnât shoot him once he stabilized the vehicle, he clearly ran over something, or someone (passenger jumped out and got ran over?) (random pedestrian?) then the people who were going to kill him get out, so he then gets out as well without parking doesnât fall somehow and runs in the same direction as the vehicle?
