Citizen Mon, 03 Jun 2019 18:38:39 +0000 http://www.northescambia.com/?p=365191#comment-390381 Jerry, It's two (2) completely different and separate incidents. Law enforcement applied for a warrant for murder regarding an incident from a previous time. Numbnuts decides to flee and put the community at risk thus getting into an accident, then tried to flee on foot. The judicial system worked perfectly since he was aquitted on the murder charge but not driving like a dumb dumb. Had he pulled over like you are supposed to do by law, he would be 100% free. I call it karma! Jerry,

I'm pretty sure he earned those charges and that sentence. He hurt people while fleeing the police with a load of dope in the car. I’m pretty sure he earned those charges and that sentence.

And having all types of drugs didn't help. He broke the law, if he would have not ran from the police then half of the so called stacked charges would not apply.

He was charged with 1st degree murder, but was acquitted, but now goes to prison because of a long list of what I consider "stacked" charges. Although this guy might be a really bad guy, the "stacked" charges had nothing to do with the original reason law enforcement thought he had committed a crime. Cops and prosecutors add charges, not for justice of a specific crime, but in an attempt to get a win for any charge they can come up with. As a military defense lawyer told me many years ago, if the prosecution can get a guilty verdict on one of the tacked on minor offenses, it is still a win for them. We talk about prison overcrowding, but how many inmates are sitting in prison that were not convicted of the major incident charge, but for a minor "stacked" charge.
