Any idea on how many DWi case a year, just wonder what the pay scale works out to be per case.

400 in March of this year in Albuquerque alone (the last month reported)

They keep going at this pace and pretty soon the whole state will be convicted.

BTW, coming home from Toyah today, I saw four stop and sniffs in operation.

Five DPS cars and one brand new shiny blue Crown Vic bearing a supervisor.

It already has been. Some months ago several executives from a national corporation told me that New Mexico was the only state where they had to relax a companywide prohibition on hiring people with DUI's. They would have 70 or 80 applicants for a job and every one of them would have at least one DUI. They had canceled expansion plans and were seriously debating pulling out of the state because of the low quality workforce.

“There’s no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren’t enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What’s there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed nor enforced nor objectively interpreted and you create a nation of law-breakers.”
