we had a similar Dalton/Duran case here just a year or two ago. a woman driving and 3 fo her friends were driving super-speeds to escape her stalker ex-boyfriend who was in hot pursuit.

they crashed, the girl was killed in the accident.

stalker was put in general population and beaten to death two days later by.......

the girls cousin who was already in for life.
