QUOTE The man suspected of causing a fiery commuter-train wreck in an aborted suicide attempt could face the death penalty on multiple murder charges, Los Angeles County District Attorney Steve Cooley said Thursday. Authorities said Juan Manuel Alvarez, 25, abandoned his sport-utility vehicle on a railroad track in suburban Glendale early Wednesday after changing his mind about killing himself. A Metrolink commuter train crashed into the Jeep Cherokee, derailed and sideswiped another commuter train and idle freight locomotive. Eleven people died and 180 were injured in the chain-reaction disaster. It was the nation's worst train wreck in nearly six years and took the heaviest casualty toll in the regional Metrolink system's 12-year existence. The body of the 11th victim, a woman, had not yet been recovered when prosecutors filed a criminal complaint Wednesday night charging Alvarez with 10 counts of murder. Cooley said the complaint will be amended to add another murder count when Alvarez is arraigned. Can you believe anyone could be so stupid and so selfish? What, you drive your car there, change your mind, and walk home? He deserves to die. |

[22:00:18 PM] Are they saying that it would've been better for him to die on the tracks?
[22:00:23 PM] And also kill innocent others in the process? [22:00:38 PM] _________: ooh yea that is true. [22:00:53 PM] Is it better that he should face the consequences for his actions? Or would it have been better if he died without having to take responsibility? Conversation between me and someone; I wasn't sure if I wanted to post on the thread.. but yea. |
