Did I read the wrong article about the drunk driver? My understanding was a guy in his pathfinder was surrounded by a crowd of celebrators and, when he couldn't move forward or backward, gunned car, and ran people over. Is there anything cops really can do about that?
And, on the theme of bullshit charges, how about the case of
Willie Williams (there are probably better articles, but my google-fu isn't in full gear at 9:30). This is the high school football star who wrote about his recruiting visits to FSU, Auburn, Miami, and Florida, with sordid details about the farmer chicks at Auburn and the two-steak, four lobstertail dinner at FSU. So, he goes to Florida on a recruiting visit, evidently hugs a woman allegedly against her will, possibly sets off a couple of fire extinguishers. Okay, some college-kid prank stuff.
Anyway, the day after he announces he's decided to go to Miami (I guess on their early action plan), the police in Gainesville file charges for battery against him. Nice.
