hmmmm. and he's still driving...why?
Obviously because he wanted to. His license is suspended.
Will get a plea deal of 90 days to serve on weekends and maybe a fine. We will read about him with 8 or 10 more DUI's.
9:52-I was in court that day.He threatened to kick the judges butt if he took his driving priviledges away.That's why.
Nothing going on behind those dead eyes!! It's amazing how everyone has jumped on this opioid bandwagon and we glorify the consumption of alcohol! Plenty of "functioning" Jared kernodle in our community

What a waste of human life! He puts everyone in danger and in the end he's going to kill someone in a car wreck and boo hoo afterwards when it's the now that matters.
