| Brandon Weston & Pamela Rice arrested in hit-and-run death (WSB-TV) |
One thing I find absolutely despicable is someone who leaves the scene of an accident. Nearly two weeks ago,
Emmanuel Mitchell of Norcross, Ga, was killed in a hit-and-run, as he rode his motorcycle on Interstate 75. Well, the police have finally found the dirtbags who fled the scene in their Porsche --
Brandon Weston, 32, and
Pamela Rice, 41.
Mitchell was on a motorcycle when he was struck by a car on Interstate 75 near Windy Hill Road on Aug. 20. Witnesses told police Mitchell was initially struck by a Porsche, and then several other drivers as he lay on the highway. Police recovered evidence at the scene that they said belonged to a silver Porsche made between 1986 and 1991.
Weston owns a silver 1987 Porsche 944 but does not have the vehicle registered or insured, according to the warrant. Weston is accused of conspiring with Rice to take the car to a repair shop in Alabaster, Ala. where damage to the vehicle was repaired, the car was painted black and the paperwork was doctored to make it look like the repairs happened before the crash, the warrant said.
Weston is charged with failure to maintain lane, no insurance, failure to register a vehicle, hit-and-run, vehicular homicide and tampering with evidence. Rice is charged with being a party to a crime of hit-and-run, vehicular homicide and tampering with evidence. Both are being held without bond in the Cobb County Jail. Source
Weston and Rice will be locked up for quite some time in a Georgia prison, as they should. You can't cause an accident and then just drive off into the sunset or night as though you did nothing wrong. Plus try to cover your tracks, when you clearly know you have done something wrong.
