Vlad King, 39, was sentenced to 22 months in prison for stealing a Kia Sportage and leading police on a dangerous high-speed chase. The theft occurred in Colne Engaine, and the vehicle was tracked thanks to a device installed in the car. King disregarded police signals and drove dangerously at speeds reaching nearly 120 mph. After crashing in London, he was arrested with several items in his possession, prompting victim apprehension over personal safety. His defense argued the impact of his sentencing on his family, including a partner and infant daughter.
"You could have easily caused death or serious injury. There is no reason as to why you did it." - Judge Jamie Sawyer's remarks on the dangerous driving incident.
"He actively avoided the police tactics, drove offroad, almost colliding with another vehicle and ignored red signals." - Prosecutor Kellina Gannon describing the defendant's reckless driving.
