    This is awful. Also, my living room got a little dusty when ESPN showed the Ocho Cinco interview this morning.

    What a horrible way to die. And those poor, poor kids.

    Just awful. You hate to see this happen to a guy who was making a genuine effort to turn his life around and take care of his kids. RIP.

    Regardless of his faults, he was somebody's son, father, and friend and nobody deserves to go this young. RIP.

    @Juancho: If she was swerving and whatnot, I don't like her chances. Of course, it's just as likely that he simply fell out and it wasn't her fault.

    @Juancho: if she purposely swerved, there was intent to injure. If she slammed on the brakes, then she can claim she was surprised and tried to stop. This could be a brutal case on top of an already horrifying event.

    @Blast it, Biggs: He could have been trying to beat her and she was trying to get away. That's just speculation but if he was after her, screaming from the bed of the pick-up, I'd be swerving too if I were in her shoes.

    Sadly, I've known more than one person who has driven a car with someone goofing around or hanging out/on the roof or a window that has caused serious injury/death. To say it's not a good scene is an understatement, to say the least.

    @DaOtterAgain: still would be reckless endangerment.

    @Juancho: She'll probably just argue that she was so upset she didn't notice he had jumped on the back.

    Man this is horrible. How fucking crazy must this woman be to keep driving? Insane.

    @Botswana Meat Commission FC: Unless she was being chased by a lunatic threatening to hurt her.

    I understand the sympathy for Henry, obviously.....but I don't see how charging the fiancee with a crime in this situation helps anyone. Especially the kids, who would then be effectively orphaned.

    Per standard operating procedure, emergency crews smashed out the back window of the truck with a golf club and dragged Henry's girlfriend to safety.
