Last week, Reginald Harris pulled a u-turn on a highway while fleeing the police. While driving the wrong way at nearly 100 miles an hour, he crashed into another vehicle, killing a young man and woman who were siblings.
Harris, who also died in the crash, had a long rap sheet and a revoked license.
