3rd or more offense? And why does he get turned loose to do it again, will he have to kill someone before he gets to stay in jail!
At 52 years of age one would surmise that he should KNOW better; not to DUI or flee from the police! How many times is a person allowed to DUI and have the opportunity to destroy the property of others or KILL SOMEONE!
The judges in our court system SHOULD KNOW BETTER than to release a repeat offender back into the public domain and should be given the legal authority to hand down stiffer penalties to repeat offenders instead of a congratulatory slap on the wrist. The legal system today protects perverts and predators and certainly not law abiding citizens. It’s a sad state of affairs!
