Speeding police car crashes into car turning left killing two teenagers
Milford Police have released the chilling video of the crash that killed two Orange teens in June.
The video shows Officer Jason Anderson's car racing by another Milford cruiser at 94 mph before slamming into the car carrying Ashlie Krakowski and David Servin, both 19.
The dash cam in Milford Officer Richard Pisano's records his cruiser traveling around 70 mph and shows Anderson's vehicl More..e speed by.
Moments later, Anderson's cruiser collides with the teens' car, which appears to be turning into the path of the cruiser. The impact sends sparks and debris flying.
The video also shows a few things that aren’t obvious at first glance.
Anderson passes Pisano on the right, which is illegal in Connecticut, His lights and siren are off.
It also shows both officers drive through red and flashing yellow lights right before Anderson hits the teens' car at the intersection of Dogwood and Boston Post roads.
"It may appear that the Anderson vehicle is not traveling at that high a rate of speed… but that’s not true because to get a true perspective of the vehicle going in excess of 90 mph, you have to be outside of the vehicle going 70 mph," Attorney John Wynne, who represents Krakowski's father, said.
This impact destroyed the teens' car, threw Krakowski 30 feet from the car and trapped Servin inside until firefighters extricated him.
The officers were returning from a mutual aid call at the Utopia Café in West Haven and Wynne said the accident was completely avoidable.
"They weren’t responding to a call. Their lights and sirens weren’t on. It was 2:15 in the morning and they were just returning back to Milford," he said.
Anderson was suspended with pay from the Milford Police Department, arrested by State Police and charged with manslaughter. He is due in court on Nov. 24.
"His conduct was so egregious and reckless that it brought these deaths and that's why he was charged," Wynne said.
The Milford Police Chief will not comment on the video until after the internal investigation is completed.
Rarely do i advocate the death penalty..... but when you swear to uphold the law and kill someone doing this they need to eliminate you from the gene pool.

Horrible. Not saying all police officers do this but everyday I see police driving however fast they want, flipping on their lights to go through stop lights then flipping them off, and slowing down to pull people behind them over.
Yes the teens did turn in front of them but it doesnt take long for a car traveling 94 to get on you. No lights, no call, no slowing down going through a flashing light, and now two people lost their lives and the moron ho hit them is getting PAID while being off work.

We always bitch about them getting the same treatment as us and what not. They shouldn't be charged with more or less. As well as the consequences being more or less. It should be equal across the board.

I was an Officer and I never did anything like this.... This is just inexcusable! I can't believe he's getting paid, this video is so one sided I can't believe he isn't already in jail. I couldn't be the father of those teens I'd spend every waking moment pushing for this guy to be cooked in a chair @ the local prison. One dash came shows 72mph before he is passed by the other cruiser.

to be honest with you, the officer is not 100% at fault, yes he should not have been speeding and that is obviously a contributing factor but the teens made an unsafe left turn which out here in CA is an automatic at fault, it is the turning drivers responsiblity to judge approaching vehicles and not turn if it is unsafe. Also the officer did not pass on the right, he was in a separate lane so the passing on the right does not apply, that only applies if it is a single lane and he passes him on the shoulder, that is illegal, not passing in a separate lane. Do I think the officer should be charge, no he shouldnt, it was an accident and there was fault on both parties, though whether he should still be an officer, who knows, it will depend on his prior conduct, does he have more traffic accidents? complaints for speeding? That will all have to be reviewed.

Laws are guidelines because you can't plan for every possible scenario.

Wheather or not the teens were at fault, it doesn't excuse the officer from breaking the law. He broke the law. He should be held accountable. I'm tired of cops thinking they're above the f#cking law. They aren't peroid! He should be charged with manslaughter!

There are people who rape and intentionally murder others who don't get life so there is no reason why this cop should as well. Yes he should be held accountable, no he should not be held to a different standard, cops are human as well and should be treated as such.
Terrible story, really feel for the family and friends.

Not really, the kids thought he was going the speed limit, so they felt it was safe to turn. If you at at intersection, and a car is a hundred feet away going 30, it's safe. If he is going 94mph, your not gonna make it. The speed limit sign says "40mph" at :07...
It looks like the kids in the video tried to beat him to the turn, but the cop was going too fast and they didn't plan for that. It really wasn't the cops fault but if he wasn't going 94, they wouldn't have crashed, so there really both at fault.

this isn't fair...... two teens never get to live their life because of this cop
in my opinion, its murder
take anyone else, anyone besides a cop an have them fly by a cop car at 94mph and kill 2 people...... this would be a case closed situation, the driver would be thrown in jail instantly, been tested for alcohol or drugs and get life in prison, maybe even the death penalty
but, let a cop do it and the protocol is, well we will have them go home with pay while we take out sweet ass time and investigate, meanwhile the killer is on paid vacation
in my opinion, the cop should be punished more than anyone else simply because as a cop you enforce the law and is trained to be well aware of the dangers of going 94mph at night and going through an intersection
we all know better, but a cop should know even more so with the fact that the cop is trained in law and enforces it, and is trained in the dangers of traffic accidents and how to avoid them but the cop deliberately dis-regaurds the safety of innocent citizens and kills them
people make mistakes but if i were in charge i would put the cop to death,...... those teens didn't get a second chance on life and i dont believe he should either, we dont need people like him in our society and would be better off without him
take anyone else, anyone besides a cop an have them fly by a cop car at 94mph and kill 2 people...... this would be a case closed situation, the driver would be thrown in jail instantly, been tested for alcohol or drugs and get life in prison, maybe even the death penalty
That is TOTAL bull shit.
You guys are off your fucking wagon. Anytime a cop gets away scotch free with something you say "he should be charged the same as anyone else". Now that he does something that nobody can argue about and he needs to be charged with something. You are saying death penalty.
Grow the hell up. You want to be fair, be fair all the way across and not just where you see fit.
Should he get prison time? YES! Life? Not sure about that. He made a mistake.. He wasn't intoxicated as far as I know. If your best friend did this do you think he would deserve the death penalty or life in prison. I didn't think so.

Actually the right lane is the cruising lane and the left lane the passing lane and it some states its illegal to pass on the right. I don't know about their laws but in Kentucky if you're doing 26+ over its reckless driving which would make it the cops fault no matter what the teens did.
No matter how you look at it, this could have all been avoided if the officer had his roof emergency lights on, I mean is'nt that what the damn lights are for! the same thing happend 2 years ago in Vegas, a NHP officer doing 115 mph with out emergency lights running slammed into the rear of a couple on the freeway and killed both of them. I think once you go 15 mph over the posted limit in anything other than exstreame situations your emergency lights should go on.

where do we distinguish murder from mistake???
fact: cop is well aware of the speed limit
fact: cop is well aware of the dangers of excess speeding
fact: cop is well aware of the dangers of entering intersections
so because he wasn't intoxicated its okay and a mistake???
it is not a mistake when someone is trained and knows better and deliberately disobeys the laws they are paid to enforce
how can anyone argue mistake??? when he knew better THATS HIS JOB!!!
so where is the line between mistake and murder???
in my opinion he intentionally dis-regaurds human life and in this case killed 2 people
so why does he deserve to live??? why does he deserve a second chance??? why dont you go to the cemetery and give those 2 kids a second chance..... oh wait, you cant!!!
How can you even say the teens were at fault? It was a caution zone, not a a red light. They wouldn't be able to judge the speed of a car comming that fast. MANSLAUGHTER!

Fact: people rape others and get off with far less
Fact: people violently and intentionally murder others and don't get life
Fact: Someone can do a home invasion, tie you up, beat the hell out of you, steal everything valuable you own, and they still probably wouldn't get life.
Fact: Someone can be drunk driving and kill someone and not even serve a year in prison
Fact: You know speeding is wrong and I have a feeling you have probably gone more than 15 over before in your life.
Yeah it is a sad story and it is awful that those kids were killed, still doesn't equate to something that is worthy of the death penalty or life in prison.
