A man with a history of road rage made his first court appearance Wednesday morning, when a judge decided that because of his track record for dangerous driving, the suspect will not be allowed to drive a vehicle during the course of the trial.

Jason Reynolds, 32, is facing two counts of first-degree murder for his role in an accident on E-470 last month that killed two men in separate cars.

Family and friends of the victims packed the Arapahoe County courtroom Wednesday and listened as prosecutors painted a picture of a reckless man who should never be allowed behind the wheel of a car again.

They say on Nov. 8, Reynolds drove his vehicle with extreme indifference to human life.

"When we're speaking of extreme indifference, we're talking about the evidence that support that Mr. Reynolds displayed a blatant disregard for human life while operating his motor vehicle," said Kathleen Walsh, a spokeswoman for the 18th Judicial District.

Investigators say Reynolds was chasing a Toyota 4-Runner when he swerved in front of the vehicle to cut him off and then slammed on his brakes.

The Toyota 4-Runner bumped into Reynolds' bumper, lost control, crossed the center median and flipped into oncoming traffic, landing on top of a Ford Explorer.

The driver of the 4-Runner, Kelvin Norman, 50, of Highlands Ranch and the driver of the Ford Explorer, Greg Boss, 35, of Lone Tree, were both killed instantly.

Reynolds was not hurt in the crash. Reynolds allegedly told officers at the scene that he was upshifting his Jeep when his boot jammed the brake pedal.

In the arrest affidavit, Colorado State Patrol troopers said, "Reynolds seemed irritated and his attitude was indifferent to the deceased drivers of the other vehicles. He did not seem upset even though we were only 100 feet from away the other vehicles and the deceased bodies."

Members of the victims' families had their first look at Reynolds on Wednesday. Many wept and turned away as Reynolds walked into the courtroom.

Neither family spoke to the media but Boss' family issued a statement that said, "Greg was an innocent victim of senseless road rage. Anger management and road rage are serious issues that must be addressed. We trust that our legal system will handle this appropriately, and not allow Greg's death to be in vain. Wrongdoers must be held accountable for their actions, and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law."

On Wednesday, the judge set Reynold's preliminary hearing for Jan. 30.

If bond is granted at that time, the judge issued a stipulation that Reynolds will not be allowed to operate a motor vehicle while he is out of jail.

Reynolds remains behind bars. He also faces charges of vehicular homicide and violent crime causing death in connection with the case.

Reynolds was supposed to be sentenced Wednesday for another case of road rage in which he rammed the rear of a Honda three times. That sentencing in Douglas County has been rescheduled.

Two months ago the CSP sent Reynolds a letter regarding numerous road rage complaints made against him.

He has 13 traffic offenses in the last 10 years and officers said that when they went to arrest him this week, they saw him cut off another driver and smelled marijuana on his breath.

On Wednesday District Attorney Carol Chambers added the charges from the night of his arrest, including driving under the influence of drugs and reckless driving.

For the first-degree murder charge, Reynolds faces a possible punishment of life in prison or the death penalty.
