Metrolink crash in Glendale

Or, the guy just wanted to save his Jeep. I doubt he was really thinking clearly.

I'm truly sorry people were injured and killed, but a murder charge seems ridiculous to me! Think back on how many news spots you've seen about train. v. automobile incidents...Usually, the score is Train:1, Car:0. I'm sure the guy had THOSE stats in mind when he considered this form of suicide. It was an anomoly that the Jeep was positioned in such a way as to cause such damage -- investigators have already said as much. Sooo, in my opinion, manslaughter - yes, murder w/ special circumstance - no.
