| [04-23 20:31] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: granted if you own your own plane that is easy to get around |
| [04-23 20:32] | [Chat] | Roku: so the inducement to flee is greatly reduced except in the most extreme cases, and if you are in one of those, they either set it at 10X your net worth or just 'no bail'. |
| [04-23 20:33] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: some do house arrest with ankelts nowdays |
| [04-23 20:33] | [Chat] | Roku: More than one multi millionaire figured it was unfair they couldn't just pay to be on bail pending trial and lost. |
| [04-23 20:34] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: depends on the millionair |
| [04-23 20:34] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: those born in to money tend ot think that mor ehte nthose that have earned it |
| [04-23 20:34] | [Chat] | Roku: including one drunk ass on a large yacht that plowed into a river cruise boat and then fled bc he had paid for stump shields on his bow that kept his fiberglass from breaking. And his yacht could do 50 kts |
| [04-23 20:35] | [Chat] | Roku: found 2 days later in a drunken stupor at his home after hiding for a day and a half. |
| [04-23 20:35] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: not sober enouh to know to leave the state |
| [04-23 20:35] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: as that king of accidnet is a sure fire thye are not stopping til found |
| [04-23 20:36] | [Chat] | Roku: so couldn't prove crap, but did prove that he hit the other boat and didn't render aid to the ones that got hurt on it. So he's cooling off in the state pen for like 5 years. |
| [04-23 20:36] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: yeah a lot end up geting cought for laws not lreated to oringal crime |
| [04-23 20:36] | [Chat] | Roku: if they'd proven his drunken negligence plus fleeing and lying. he'd have gotten 20+. |
| [04-23 20:37] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: yeah a lot of time if they have no proof they try for other laws |
| [04-23 20:37] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: just like how thye got copone for taxes and not murder |
| [04-23 20:38] | [Chat] | Roku: they had video but because he fled - no way to prove intoxication, and of course, being smart and dumb simultaneously, ensured he was hammered at home when found. |
| [04-23 20:38] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: so dumb it turned out ot be smart |
| [04-23 20:38] | [Chat] | Roku: any statement when impaired is inadmissable. |
| [04-23 20:39] | [Chat] | Icewolfz: yeah why many try temp instaneity |
| [04-23 20:39] | [Chat] | Roku: and it was long enough they couldn't test for trace booze - as he'd just stayed drunk. |
