Oh, boy!!
So, the cops fucked up in a grand manner this time, by driving out of control and getting an innocent civilian killed in the process. Sickening, imo. Although I don't know the woman, I offer my personal condolences to her family and friends...and hope that the Boston Police Department recompenses them in some way, and disciplines or fires the cop(s) that're accountable for the woman's needless and untimely death.
Sickening
I'm a good friend of Anne Marie's, who was killed yesterday in this senseless accident. The world has lost a beautiful, sweet girl, who lit up a lot of people's lives. She will be sorely missed. I am sick over this. I miss my friend already.
Thanks for your kind words. I hope they do something to stop these stupid high speed chases.
Ann-Marie McNally

Not to make light of the situation...
but the BPDNews report linked above says "That individual has since been pronounced." Isn't there a word missing here?
More police lingo
They never add the final word; it's always implied.
Any thought's on the first

Witness to the accident in South Boston
I was a witness to the accident on Saturday. I can clearly say that because of that Police officers negligence and failure to take any sort of precautions when barreling through the intersection as well as the RedLight - Annmarie McNally's life was taken. He should be held accountable for her death - If her family needs a witness and/or statement from me on what I saw that day.. I would be willing to do that.
