I empathize with you on the drunk driving. I was on jury duty Friday.
A young girl had run off the road and hit a utility pole. Fortunately,
no one else was involved and she wasn't injured badly. Her alcohol
level was over the legal limit. She pled not guilty and her lawyer
tried a lot of fancy double-talk to confuse the issue. We found her
guilty and gave her the maximum fine and 3 days in jail. I think she
was in shock. But the jury all thought she was really lucky. It's much
better for this 'nice' girl to spend a few days in jail and maybe keep
her from killing someone or herself next time.
