While I don't advocate killing such people, many end up either jailed or dead on their own accord - to say nothing of the havoc the wreck on their communities.

It's still tragic; but certainly less tragic than having five good people die.

Three of the victims were found dead at the scene while the two surviving victims were taken to a local trauma center. Prince George's County police said one of them is in critical condition and the other is in stable condition.
