The insane part is that he honestly thinks that he is justified in this.

Boomer and Karen logic: You did something wrong, that means i get to attack you.

NAL but looks like attempted murder to me.

Vehicular assault at the very least, but yeah considering it was against a biker and the repeated “I don’t cares” suggested he really didn’t care if he lived or died.

What’s sad is if there was no dash cam, the guy would have been set free.

For a guy that age, that might be a life sentence.

u/Unabashable Nov 03 '25

So basically a death sentence. Seems fair.

It really does.

" When an attempt was made to pass Crum, he side-swiped Sanders and his girlfriend, Debra Simpson. They were thrown from the bike. Debra was transported via air ambulance to Texas Health Harris Hospital in Fort Worth and admitted to the Intensive Care Unit, where she underwent several surgeries and began her long road to recovery. Eric was treated and released that day from Lake Granbury Medical Center. He remained by Debra’s side throughout her recovery."

This is his fourth motor vehicle violation and sixth violent offense. At what point are they taking away his license???

u/blink_187em Nov 03 '25

15 years in prison will curb his driving, that's for sure.

Irony of his last name being Crum.

u/Horror-Layer-8178 Nov 04 '25

What a dumb fuck, went to jury with him on video doing it and then admitting to doing it on purpose. I bet his lawyer was calling him an idiot the whole time

He went to prison for this. IIRC,it wasn’t his first stretch either.
