Worst case of road rage I've ever heard of.
CENTENNIAL, CO – A judge severely reprimanded a man convicted of murder in a case of alleged road rage before handing down two life sentences without the possibility of parole on Monday.

Jason Benjamin Reynolds was convicted earlier this year of charges including first-degree murder with extreme indifference.

He was accused of tailgating and flashing his lights at 50-year-old Kelvin Norman of Highlands Ranch on E-470 before cutting him off and slamming on his brakes. Prosecutors said Norman swerved and rolled into oncoming traffic, landing on top of a vehicle driven by 35-year-old Greg Boss of Lone Tree.

Both Norman and Boss died.

(snip)

When Reynolds addressed the court he called his case a "media witch hunt" and blamed reporters, some by name, and the jury for the guilty verdict.

After Reynolds spoke, Judge Carlos Samour, Jr. with the Arapahoe County District Court, sharply reprimanded him for his behavior.

Samour said Reynolds blamed everybody but himself for the murders.

1. wow
good for the judge

we need more of that

too many people just don't "get it" that there are consequences to antisocial behavior. Society has a rate to expel the bad members, and it should.

3. Wow.
It sounds like he was the poster child for anger management classes. It's a shame he never looked into some type of therapy.
