Thumbs down How low can you go?

Probably like most others on this forum, I do tend to notice every Z on the road. I think we should all pay special attention to silver Z's until these scumbags are caught!

Thieves Rip Off Home Of Dead Sonoma Family

SONOMA, Calif. -- The home of a Sonoma family tragically wiped out in a wine country weekend car crash was ransacked overnight by thieves, authorities confirmed Tuesday.

Sonoma Police Chief Bret Sackett said a family friend called police at around 7 a.m. to report the garage door at the home of the Johnathan Maloney was ajar.

Arriving officers discovered the break in at the home where a makeshift memorial of cards and flowers were stacked at the front door.

“It's incredibly despicable,” Sackett told the Santa Rosa Press Democrat. “It's such a tragic event for a family already suffering.”

Authorities said it appears the brazen crime was committed by more than one person and that the individuals took their time going through the family’s belongings. Among the items stolen was the family’s other car – a 2006 silver Nissan 350z.

Police asked residents to be on the lookout for the car that has California plates -- 5XOH067. Authorities were also relying on family members to help determine what was taken from the house, Sackett said.

The Maloneys were killed in a crash that occurred at about 9:20 p.m. Saturday on state Highway 37.

CHP Sgt. Trent Cross said a Mini Cooper driven by 19-year-old Steven Culbertson went through a red light at the intersection of Lakeville Road and broadsided a Nissan Quest minivan.

Johnathan Maloney, 45, was driving the Nissan with his wife, 42-year-old Susan Maloney, and their two young children, 5-year-old Grace and 8-year-old Aiden. All four family members, who lived in Sonoma, were pronounced dead at the scene.

Culbertson suffered life-threatening injuries and was taken to a local where he died on Sunday, Cross said.

Two other vehicles were involved in the wreck, but no one else was seriously injured.

The crash began when the Mini Cooper was speeding south on Lakeville Road and clipped the back of a 2004 Honda CR-V going the same direction, according to the CHP.

The Honda's driver and passenger weren't injured.

After hitting the Honda, the driver of the Mini Cooper continued south on Lakeville Road and ran a red light at Highway 37. Cross said he was driving about 100 mph.

At the intersection, the Mini Cooper hit the Nissan Quest as it was traveling east on Highway 37.

The family's Nissan was pushed into a 2002 Mitsubishi Galant that was also traveling east on Highway 37, the CHP reported.

Novato resident Carrie Rodriguez, 52, and her passengers Liberty Rosario, 47, of Fairfield, and Adelaida Nicholas, 53, of Novato, were taken to local hospitals and treated for minor injuries before being released, according to the CHP.

Speed was considered a factor in the crash, authorities said, and alcohol has not been ruled out.
