Same reason that there are people driving around now with numerous DUI's. Seems its only a big problem when a drunk kills somebody. Otherwise it seems to be business as usual. System is a joke.

My great uncle (grandfathers brother)was a boozer. Work construction all day Monday-Friday, drink it all down over the weekend. Every weekend of his life after discharge from the army.

Was a hell of a mechanic. He frequented the owl in Bessemer on 15th street. He lived straight down 15th about 2 miles from the bar.

Police would pick him up dui once or twice a month. They'd put him to work on the vehicles and release him when done. He probably had well over 150 dui's and public intoxications through his lifetime.

Wasn't a thing anyone in the family could do to stop him. He eventually died of liver failure but was well into his 60's by then. The police and judges were guilty as hell of letting it continue instead of locking him up and throwing away the key.

Thank goodness he never hurt or killed anyone.

That used to happen a lot. Now, your 5th one is a felony and you go to jail.

I can understand letting someone off with a mistake at one, but two should be the felony.

My grandfather told me how relieved he was when his brother died. He lived 40+ years worrying when his brother would kill someone.

It was a relief that he no longer had to worry about it.

150 arrests. Police got him twice a month? How are they guilty as hell for letting it continue?

He was never prosecuted. He was released after repairing their vehicles when he should have been sitting in jail.

They COULD have picked him up EVERY weekend. 52 times a year. But only did it when they needed work done.

Clear enough?

Your side of the story is. Correct


Fixed that for you. Hell a defense attorney just stated it used to happen. And it did.

There are currently folks driving around with dozens or more dui's on their record.

It's the way it was and doesn't matter to me if you believe it or not.

Your reasoning for being so defensive is?

The point is this is applied to illegal aliens. Why do they get 3 chances before we put a boot to their ass.

Bud,I'm not being defensive. Just get tired of folks blaming cops for stuff they have no control over. They don't set the bail or decide when they go home or determine sentencing. I have seen guys who spend their time in a shop doing work instead of sitting in the jail. You think cops like dealing with the same thugs over and over and charging them and nothing ever gets done.

You fill the jails then inmates sue because they aren't eating steak or living conditions are bad. Then it's an outrage because they are being treated unfair under their definition of unfair. It cost the county money to defend suits so to prevent public outrage or avoid public outcry they let some out. Then they commit another crime and folks wonder why they weren't in jail. It's a revolving door.

Agreed. Maybe I should rephrase my earlier statement.

"The police administration and judges were guilty as hell of letting it continue instead of locking him up and throwing away the key. The public's wrath would have been enormous and aimed directly at them."

You've been in public service long enough to know the guy on the front line will take the brunt of that anger, not the guys in the offices.

Thats always a possibility. I looked back to 2004 and it was still 4 back then.
