  1. That devil Cop must pay for what he did

  2. Taxpayers compensate criminals if they get hurt committing a crime. America is over

  3. New Yorks latest Organ Donor, folks we have a Winner !!!

  4. The police are the enforcement agents of corrupt governments. They're not heroes, not paid to protect and serve you.

  5. Looks like a manslaughter charge. Book him.

  6. Look at these lowlifes setting up a shrine to their hero fentanyl dealer.

  7. As long as it was a Yeti its all 👍

  8. Imagine if you will, the cop doesnt throw the cooler, and the suspect instead keeps riding and strikes a woman or child on the sidewalk, killing them. Thats why we dont care that this punk is dead, HE reaped the consequences of HIS actions.

  9. I think if he ran cause he was guilty and how they suppose to stop a bike they all run

  10. Shouldn't have been running tough on him.

  11. This drug dealer family should have stayed in their own country where they would be safe.

  12. A evil pig i told you they exist

  13. he was no lost to society. he was a drug dealer. this country burning because of people like him.

  14. I guess cooler heads did not prevail

  15. 🎉 this was a criminal ! The new world is not nice ,he should have stopped and compled,but no he was a crime commiter ! Gooooood by scummy criminal filith🎉 good job officer !!!
    I back the blue in this case *❤

  16. Suspend all the white cops and put black people there ll be peace everywhere

  17. Almost every comment says good job to the cop. No matter how you look at it the coo killed the guy! All the he deserved it comments would be different if that was their family that died. Cops are not supposed to chase/pursue if it would cause more harm. Big fail by the coo and whoever agrees with it.. Prayers for the family and the loved ones!!

  18. Maybe he shouldn't have been running from the police?

  19. There’s been a lot of cop corruption going on lately, more than usual in the America.

  20. This is manslaughter charges, plain and simple. This officer needs to be charged.

  21. How many fetynol deaths were possibly just avoided and was he here illegally

  22. Why didn’t this drug dealer stop insteading of running on a motorized vehicle endangering pedestrians ? Stop blaming police for every time a criminal ends up dying from fleeing

  23. We are so sorry me and my husband are very close with Eric for about 6 years now . we interacted with him on the daily bases from the time we became friends. He was a very cool , well respected , and loving friend.We are going to miss him and the Aqueduct will never be the same without him. May he RIP and may his family seek justice along with the help of all of us his friends. Love always Baby & Lite we love you ❤
