And nice of the perp to spare the public the expense of a trial and incarceration.
The judge seems to have a habit of letting drug dealers out of jail. According to another article, she let a drug dealer out for Thanksgiving after he failed to show up in court 75 times.

Noticed a judge (U.S. Magistrate Judge Cynthia Imbrogno) let this perp out of jail. Wonder what the history of the perp (age 41) inside the justice system has been and was this a consideration of this perp's release through the revolving door of the justice system? Of course nobody has the right to question the decisions of a judge, so being quiet now.
Should check this judge's bank accounts.
Amen to that.....
Ah that terrible war on drugs. If only we made heroin legal, we could avoid the tragic gun fights. Sigh.
I live in the area in which this occurred. It was a wild chase. I was headed South when the police were headed north after the perp. I’ve never seen or heard so many sirens. Glad the idiot saved the police the cost of a bullet.
Interesting contrast here.
George Zimmerman, a man with zero convictions, who gave full cooperation to the Police, who had obvious injuries and was defending himself, has bond set at $150,000.
The Spokane gentleman had 25 adult convictions, a recent jail escape, and was arrested for selling heroin, was apparently released without paying any bond.
