Lawyers for Illinois State Trooper Matt Mitchell are trying to get reckless homicide charges dismissed in the death of two Collinsville sisters stating he broke no laws. How do you feel about their argument?
It is sad but charges should be dismissed. Police officers are not required to obey the speed limit in emergencies and no other laws were broken.
Although no laws were broken, even a driver going the legal speed limit would know not to talk on the cellphone, and send/receive e-mails as the trooper was doing at the time.
Whether he broke the law or not, he took the lives of two young women and should be held responsible for his actions.
