guilty, Guilty, GUILTY, GUILTY!!! Update on Case. (Warning Graphic)

[Landshark+3]

Wow!!

I checked in today and saw so many nice post and it really made me miss being here.

Mark did get a small settlement, but not much after the doctors and lawyers took there part. He had over 1,000,000 in doctors bills alone. I guess having 30+ surgeries and the 3 weeks in ICU just add up super fast.

Yesterday they proved there was injury so he will be facing more time and it could be 15 years. It's never nice to see the out come of what happens to both family's from drinking and driving, but at least he didn't get to walk away just because he was a cop.

The DPS officer, still couldn't get over the fact he was being charged and that they were even continuing with the case. He was super arrogant and said "I am a cop, I take classes and work DUI task force, I know how to drink and drive"
After the accident when the other cops told him to go sit by the wall and he went over there stood up and was swaying around. He was asked why he wouldn't sit down and he said. "I am policeman and have served for 22 years, I am above that." Marks lawyer made a note to remind him that Mark was laying on the assfault because of him, but he was to good to sit on it?


The guy really came ac cross as a huge arrogant jerk, but maybe prison will change that.


I just wanted to say I misses the love and family here and thanks for all the support.

Hoping to be back on two wheels some time soon.

I'm really glad this came through the way it did

however

i don't know about the rest of you but it leaves me kinda hollow

I'm happy that asshole is going to jail

but

it doesn't really change anything for mark

he still lost his leg and spent so long tore up

the "justice" doesn't make up for it

Hey Larry,

you don't know me, but just wanted to offer whatever encouragement I can. Damn, life dealt a rough hand to you and your brother over the past couple of years. Hang in there, man.

Wish the best for you and your brother! If you need a shop in the east valley to work at, you got one here. We have enough fab equipment to build you a bike form the ground up!

[sbrguy]

Never does. 

vengence and justice never do fully make up for a bad act.  guess that is why they say you its the one thing that you can eat over and over till you are more than full, but at the end of the day you are still left with an empty feeling.

good luck to you and your brother, glad to see that at least the person that did the act will not be on the streets for some time.

Jail?  Hell, once those inside find out he's a cop of any length of time, jail is the least of his worries.

Glad to hear things are starting to improve, thanks for the update.  Hang in there.
