How they died
Vehic/Purs
A county officer speeding at over 100 MPH--55 MPH over the posted limit--collided with Rakes' car and killed him. An extended dispute about who was at fault ended with a judge throwing out the only action against the officer, a traffic citation. This was the same officer who had killed Felix Beltran in a very similar incident in February 2007.
