I had a gotten a DUI. Gave the lawyer an extra 1k so the judge could get his taste. In court the lawyers argument was that I was in college and didn't need my life ruined, and that I was the responsible driver cause I was barely over the limit while the rest of the people riding with me were hammered.
I got let off Scott free. Goes to prove the old saying...most cases in the delta are decided beforehand on a back road at night.
Poor black kid who was up next after me got the book thrown at him for a DUI charge.

Strangely enough, she went to her apartment manager and told her that she had killed her husband. We get called and I show up thinking she's just some nut. I ask her what happened. She says "I killed Joe." Still thinking that she's a nut, I asked where "Joe" was. She says "right here", then clicks her garage door opener. As it open I see a 6-7 foot bedroom comforter rolled into what looks like a burrito with a big blood stain at one end. Come to find out, she had gone to her hair stylist and had her hair cut really short. When she arrived home her husband, who was a bit of a-hole anyway according to neighbors, says to her "nice haircut. You look like a frickin' dyke." So, she waits until he goes to sleep, gets out his Ruger GP100 revolver, puts in to the back of his skull and squeezes the trigger.
She was initially going to just freeze him to buy herself a little more freedom, so she had Home Depot deliver a deep freeze. Once she got his body to the garage and realized that he wouldn't fit, she was going to chop him up with an axe, but lost her nerve and just turned herself in. Pretty oopen-and-shut case. She got sentenced to 60 years when she was 58 years old. In Texas you have to do at least half of your murder sentence before parole eligibility, so she'll be 88 before she's eligible. If she doesn't die in prison, she'll be a feeble old woman by the time she gets out.

I bet that dyke haircut goes over well in prison, so she has that going for her

I think you meant Scotch free as surely between arrest and court you had sobered up.

A very famous, high profile person in the sports world pointed me out and testified against me for a situation I was involved in.

Nah. I got real drunk one night on the gsb and told it (with pics!) but then deleted it. It's really not something I would rather be widely known. Although sometimes Lew will make jokes about it on here which is irritating.

The DUI fine would have been more, my license wasn't revoked, and it wasn't put on my record

So it was Springer/Maury with a dash of Law and Order SVU today.
The grandparents doing the usual verbal sparring, minus the profanity but you got the clear message. The attorneys both blaming other side for causing the circus and the judge telling both attorneys and I quote "Counselors if you can not control your emotions any better than you control your clients" Then the bombshell...The kid drops an abuse allegation and recants it in chambers because he was pissed that step dad took his phone away for telling mom to f herself.
I swear I hate my job some days.

I was told the judge was in a bad accident earlier in the morning and the trial would be postponed. It really sucked for the guy who drove 8 hours the day before for the trial.
