snuffy Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 ....there's one less jackass on the road (too bad it's in LA): http://velonews.competitor.com/2010/01/new...ve-years_102274 The article fails to mention that the esteemed Dr. Thompson also received a lifetime driving ban.

bhurt Posted January 14, 2010 Share Posted January 14, 2010 My only comment to this is wwhy the hell did it take two years, man I hate the justice system ibn the USA, you can keep on appealing things so it takes so long to go to court then people's memory aren't as good as it was say 1 year after the incident.

snuffy Posted January 15, 2010 Author Share Posted January 15, 2010 I don't think he really thought the DA would go through with prosecuting him, nor did he do himself any favors. He confessed to both the 911 operator and the arresting officer, refused to plead out, and then recanted (and perjured himself) on the stand. I'll be interested to see how he gets to work again when he gets out of prison (and with the civil suits he'll be facing, he'll need to work). I doubt there's bus service in that neighborhood....he might need to buy a bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
