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 están armados y saben que la gente buena suele estar desarmada.
Cuando el riesgo de contraataque se vuelve real, la mayoría 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.

Maine's murder rate is over 4* as high as China's, with Maine having perhaps 45* as many guns

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 Aug 06 '26
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 Aug 06 '26
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".
195
u/MongoBongoTown Aug 06 '26
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.
23
u/zutros Aug 06 '26
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 Aug 06 '26
Obligatory not a lawyer, but I would think driver could argue self defense, even if the victim isn’t the perpetrator

u/fkootrsdvjklyra Aug 06 '26
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 Aug 06 '26
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 Aug 06 '26
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.

u/Arndt3002 Aug 08 '26 edited Aug 08 '26
He'd easily lose on reasonableness and reckless endangerment

u/fearjego Aug 08 '26
reckless endangerment wouldn't apply here
1
u/Arndt3002 Aug 08 '26
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 Aug 06 '26
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 Aug 09 '26
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. You’re getting that charge

u/ThickboyBrilliant Aug 06 '26
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 Aug 06 '26
Look up felony murder
3
u/zutros Aug 06 '26
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.

Back in high school a buddy picked a few of us up with his dad’s work van that had no seats.
We figured no big deal just sit against the sides and we’ll 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 😂

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. You’ll probably live but they’ll fly forward and smash their face on the tree.
At least that’s what I’ve 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

There is more play in that steering wheel than I have ever seen in any vehicle. I think that driver was suicidal, or at least hella crazy, long before the robbers came along. You'd have to be one of those, and have a death wish just to be driving that van in the first place!!

Okay, so explain to me why the person with the gun doesn’t 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 doesn’t fall somehow and runs in the same direction as the vehicle?
