The legal limit in Minnesota is .08 why did the wardens even charge him?

My guess is they knew it would be good copy, lets nail this guy who’s somebody and it will make the common folk squrim.

F**king Cops…

What’s disgusting to me is that the guy plead to a misdemeanor.  It’s not illegal to drink and drive.  It’s only illegal to be impaired (or intoxicated depending on the statute) or to be over the proscribed limit.  If this guy is a United States Citizen, he may be unable to do his job as Canada has restrictions on admission to foreigners who have these types of convictions.

Certainly the linked report does not have full details, but the arrest and subsequent conviction do not pass the sniff test.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause.” Teddy Roosevelt

More cop hating news.

I guess that now extends to judges, prosecutors, juries and the entire judiciary system.

Hell, it even extends to defendant who took the deal.

Know nothing babbling. Nothing more.

Fucking lawyers. And fucking trolls.
