I'm trying to teach you both the concept of compassion. It's your emotional intelligence that I call into question, not your ability to type on an internet forum. This will be my last post on the forum because most people are more reasonable than what I have experienced here. In fact, if you read most threads, many responses are merely judgmental in nature and not in the least helpful. Shame on you. I truly hope, for your sake, that you never make a mistake. When you have delusions of perfection, it's so much easier to be condescending, isn't it?

Compassion Compassion You have got to be kidding me. It wasn't one mistake. It's been at three times that he has been caught not to mention the times he didn't get caught. I have compassion but not for someone who cares so little about my life and the life of the people that I love that he will arm himself with a deadly weapon, just because he is too macho or too broke to catch a cab home.

Shame on you. I hope to God you or your loved ones never become a victim of a drunk driver's arrogance. Because then you will eat your own words ~ Let me see how compassionate you will be then.

and...if you don't like what we have to say, check yourself and your two cents at the door. Don't let the door hit you on the way out. Good riddance.

If Bozo comes back, he can educate himself here, where compassion belongs:

And he can Google to find more stories worthy of compassion.

As for civil suit question, if she had been married at the time of the crash, the marital insurance and remotely, possibly marital assets would not be excluded by a subsequent divorce at this point.

But since you're not married to the guy, you should be fine. You may need to find a sitter for those times he would have taken the kids.... he may be tied up for awhile.

Compassion belongs everywhere. Jesus loved sinners much more than the righteous.

God said Thou Shalt Not Lie ~ you did ~ you came back and you said you would not.

Unfortunately, I have been faced with that situation in the past. Yet, I forgave the driver. He went on to turn his life around and is now a close friend.

I pray to God that you will never have a friend or loved one that struggles with addiction. Like I said earlier, your black and white view of the world is far too narrow minded.

Indeed, I am a sinner. You are so righteous.

YOU are the ones with an obvious agenda... and that agenda is NOT to help people, which is what this site is about. I even can venture a guess that the both of you are strong Christians. Just a hunch. And that's why most Christian churches are shrinking. Elitist attitude and total condescension are NOT Christian qualities.

This is freeadvice.com, a legal forum. Do have any legal advice or need some? Are you the founder of this site? Did you read some mission statement that I have apparently missed? When you make assumptions you look very foolish.

If you insist on lying then please make it believable, I knew that you would be back for more trolling. This statement is pure cow poop, we all know this never happened. Please, find a new forum to waste you time in.

It would be my pleasure to dig up my buried father to prove a point to some jerk on a legal advice website. Unfortunately, that is extremely costly. Yes, I came here looking for advice, and found a bunch of people spewing hatred, propaganda, and judgment. What was YOUR advice on this matter? *******.

This is not about judging nor religion, but criticizing actions and the consequences he'll get from of it. He was very irresponsible and endangered people's lives.

I do agree that just criticizing his mistakes won't help the lady that posted for help. But also, I think it's a little hypocritical of you to tell them they are being judgmental when you are judging them for not being 'compassionate'. I'm sure your speech would be different if you had lost a loved one because of a drunk driver.

The bottom line is, this person will most likely get locked up for a long time and hopefully will learn the lesson.

Did you read the earlier posts liar? I've read yours. You're a DUI convert looking to make yourself feel better about your own blatant disregard for public safety. We all know your father wasn't killed by a drunk driver. We all know you are just here to troll and try to make yourself feel better for your mistake.

You make it sound like a felony DUI offender tripped on the street and fell on a DUI.

The fact he was caught three times means that he has, literally, driven impaired hundreds of times.

Hundreds.

I have the same amount of compassion for an adult that does this as I would for an adult that fires a shot into the air randomly every night for years... none.

The fact that he didn't kill someone doesn't mean he wasn't trying.

So, what I am inquiring about is how is it possible that he is only going to serve 3 months for the probation violation when he was not supposed to be released from house arrest until September 2010 and he has these new charges, which clearly violate his condition of house arrest?

Just to reset, OP was actually asking how the punishment that was originally suggested by a PO could be so lenient. OP laid out the severity of the crime committed up front, never defended the actions, or inquired about an easy way out or loop hole. Seems to me OP was looking for advice out of concern for a child born of mentioned suspect, who will likely now be essentially fatherless for a period of some time to come. OP, I feel that your suspicion of more jail time being likely is warranted. I think the three months mentioned would be about right solely for the probation violation. The offender will most likely have house arrest revoked, and serve the remainder of that sentence in jail. Then they will be looking at a lengthy stay in jail on top of all that for the most recent incident.

Thanks for the recap but those questions were all answered.
