Case of Taylorsville cop charged with negligent homicide put on hold during appeal
2 comments | Read story
Corbett was responding to an emergency. This is a very common occurrence that happens dozens of times each and every day throughout the valley. It is a fact that Corbett was responding to assist a fellow officer who needed and deserved back up just as quickley as it could be provided. The other cop was pursuing a dangerous fugitive. Contrary to what some would lead you to believe, fugitives now flee the police with impunity and pose grave risk to the public and the cops.
If you're in a crash with injuries, the victim of a crime in progress, your house is on fire, or your kid just got blown up with fireworks, you likely expect the cops and EMT's to bust their butts to get there quickly. This creates increased risks to everyone. That's why the legislature need's to fix this now.

It's too bad it resulted in a death, but if the kid had drugs in his system, plus was texting on his cell, why is that the fault of the officer involved in a chase, and announcing his approach to the intersection with his lights and sirens. They're kind of hard to miss.
Just another bad cop out there, I guess.
