One more classic SUV roll-over.....though obviously not under normal circumstances.....and this guy apparantly wasn't belted in either.
If he hadn't rolled it first, at that speed he eventually would have run into something...large GM SUV's have notoriously poor brakes.

A little background info on the guy in the video, he was running from the cops because he had just shot and killed his wife and her best friend in front of their young children and left them for dead on the side of a residental road in St. Louis County. He was abusing his wife and kids so she was leaving him. This guy was such a loser! Surviving the crash, he died after ariving at the hospital.

Its miraculous this idiot didn't kill any other innocent people other than is ex-wife and her friend. The true victims of this whole case are the kids because not only did they witness their father gun-down their mother and her friend, but they are without their mother and father.

Seat Belt, Seat Belt, Seat Belt.
Did you guys see? He was ejected and slamed on the ground bounced back up about 1 or 2 feet and landed.

Did the news say that he was not wearing a seat belt?
If he was wearing the seat belt and got ejected like that, man, I selling my SUV.

It looked like he was trying to commit vehicular suicide. Why else would be veer that far and go off the road. Maybe he chickened out at the last second instead of crashing into a wall of concrete.

At least there wont be a costly trial.
I'd never commit a crime for a woman. If she wants someone else, so be it.

My kids will still love me.
