Pennsylvania man sentenced for murdering Uber driver Christina Spicuzza
2025-05-07
[NYPOST] A Uber passenger was sentenced to life in prison without parole for the 2022 killing of driver, 38-year-old mother Christina Spicuzza.

The family of Spicuzza said they ''showed mercy'' on her killer by requesting he not be given the death penalty for the senseless slaying.

Calvin Crew, 25, was sentenced to life without parole at the Allegheny County Courthouse in Pittsburgh for the murder of the mother-of-four, CBS News reported.

Spicuzza's family read impact statements to the court despite the killer not being in attendance for his sentencing.

''You should have the death penalty, but we showed mercy,'' Spicuzza's mother, Cindy Spicuzza, said.

''You executed her. No mercy, no remorse. It was abhorrent. It was murder.''

Who speaks for the dead? The real victim had no say.
