Well it appears that the self-confessed, 44-year-old hit and run driver was probably a hit and run driver or just a plain old killer waiting to happen.
He's already served 10 years for killing the original 50 Cent. He was picked up for drunk driving last month, and his excuse for killing the Glaubers was that he was fleeing another vehicle occupied by a person or persons who were shooting at him.
Sounds like a real piece of work.
The most poignant detail that jumped out at me from the NPR coverage of the sad story was that the young married couple, parents-to-be, were only 21. Poor dears. My husband has a friend whose son and new bride are expecting a child, similar age--precious. Meanwhile, the skanks and gangbangers get away with murder. In this crass, self-indulgent culture that some killer gets a sweet young couple burns me up....Thinking of their poor parents, mourning the children whose passage into adulthood they so recently celebrated.

I know, R. Their ages really got to me, too.
