RE: [ST] BAD Cop.......

["Heyer, Matthew A." <mheyer@xxxxxxxxx>]

I don't disagree with you in that they *could* have been playing around.
But, the picture they showed on TV this morning could have been from
anything (when he first purchased and picked-up the bike, or anything
else - we just don't know, so we can't assume as there are plausible
alternatives).  

What leads you to the conclusion that they were "playing around" other
than that being the cop's words on the tape (I heard the 911 call tapes
this morning for both phone calls)?  I don't doubt your conclusion as
this is what typically happens, especially with a bike that powerful and
"cool" amongst a group of young kids (who we all know are prone to
show-off, as we were all their age at some point in time...).

I just don't like jumping to unfounded conclusions (must be the effects
of too much time in the courtroom with this law firm.....).

While there's no excuse for that kind of response by a 911 operator,
trooper
or not, I think there may be more to this story...

The Today show aired a story on it this morning, and there was only one
picture of the lad shown on a bike.  It appeared to be a green
ZX-something,
helmetless rider was standing on the pegs leaning forward and I got the
impression it may have been "pre-stoppie".  

I'm jumping to a conclusion, but clues indicate a group of kids out on
Incinerator Road "playing around".  Anyone know the area or group to
find out
more?
