One might say that the U.S. justice system's accountability practices might be in danger in this generation, where relative, but separate incidents could be contributed to the delinquency of another individual. Such is the case involving a 'high-speed police chase' between Christopher Jones and the Phoenix, Arizona police department ( http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/07/27/helicopter.crash/index.html ), wherein the course of the chase, two CIVILIAN news agency helicopters collided in mid-air and went down. Preliminary reports by the NTSB estimated that the collision occurred due to the close proximity of the helicopters to one another, but have not determined whether it was any sort of avionics issue, such as a defective rotor system, that may have caused either to lose control.
