Innocent mother of two killed during high speed police chase

According to the Houston Chronicle, Rikki Danielle Sanchez, mother of a 7-year old daughter and 4-yeard old son, was killed as a result of a high speed chase by the Houston Police Department. According to the article, the police were chasing a person suspected of theft. The chase involved a high speed pursuit through neighborhoods only blocks away from various elementary schools. Mayor Bill White promised to re-evaluate the chase policy. He should. It is absolutely tragic for a young, innocent mother to be killed because the police wanted to recover an old beat-up green Chevrolet. There is absolutely no way to justify such a decision. Our hearts and prayers go out to the family.
