What kind of idiotic judge allows a man who ran from police to be out free during the week, and just serve his 'time' on Saturdays and Sundays? I sure as heck hope this guy doesn't get the same judge he got last time.
Actually, it's not all that uncommon. People who otherwise are productive citizens commit a non-violent crime (usually a misdemeanor) are often allowed to serve their time in this fashion. Same thing for non-violent offenders that have families that depend on them for financial support.
See "work release".
It's the Andy Taylor/Mayberry approach.
LOL. I heard this driver on the radio say "I thought it was over! (the chase policy). They were supposed to stop chasing me"
This was a big issue recently in Houston when the new police chief ordered that the cops stop chases for small offenses. It has since been overturned, but this guy didn;t get the message. LOL.
It is proof of the idiocy of the order in the first place.
Instead of not chasing cars that run they should be vastly increwasing the penalties for running, like chargin all of them with attemptedassault with a deadly weapon.
As soon as they run the car should be considered a deadly wreapon and the driver should be dealt with just like they were running away waving a gun.
So I take it you would rather support the children of these folks rather than have the parents support them? If you don't think your taxes are high enough, you can always make donations to the government, but liberals like you probably want all of us to contribute to the support of the kids.
