Helpful neighbor!

[turnkey4099]

I got dragged into court a couple years back over a dispute with a neighbor. Had a guy in there who was caught with meth, heroin, pills and other crud while driving a semi. Judge issued court mandated counseling, guy lost cdl, and that was it. Quantities were enough for someone to get charged with dealing and put away for quite a long time.

Next gentleman up, was charged with DWI 20th offense after causing a pretty decent pile up, with no insurance. DLS 45th offense. Had to do 4 weekends in jail, but was issued a hardship liscense on the spot because he needed to keep his job.

If that were me doing that crap, they would have locked me up for 20 years at a minimum.

Sorta OT but local State Patrol trooper was caught off duty. DWI at 3 times legall limit BAC Question in the press is "Why isn't she in jail", common upright citizen with no prior would have been jailed until they saw the judge. Haven't heard the official answer yet.

That's pretty typical. Local sheriff in the state was doing 3 times the speed limit through a school zone (with kids present) and got caught. Judge decided not to pursue the matter.

More like just wasting bandwidth.

I personally trust the judge who has long ruled on this.

Yes , most Judges are more interested in justice than in vengeance!

You mean the county prosecutor didnt pursue it dont you? Judges dont decide that.

They actually said on the news that the judge didn't want to pursue it. Was something they touched on for about 10 seconds, then switched topics. Didn't catch what the reason was for the decision.
