That is the most important thing you can do with this situation. Even better if a few more people learn a lesson from his mistake . . .

hammerhead johnson Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Damn, that sucks. What was your blood alcohol level? My brother got a DUI, but he was at .11 Not exactly Jim McMahon/Dan Hampton/Mike Ditka level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y2HH Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 (edited) I'm not sure where some of these guys got the idea that CC is cake, but it's not. It's a scum ridden place full of gangs and criminals. The first thing you're going to notice is everyone sectioned off into their specific gangs/groups. You will quite often see whites with whites, blacks with blacks, mexicans with mexicans, latin kings with latin kings, etc...and no, this isn't a joke. So just go wherever you happen to fit in and keep quiet for a few days, because I highly doubt you're going to be in solitary for the duration, you will probably spend quite a bit of time mixed amongst them. You will get parolled early (probably after 4 days) as long as you're not a jackass that draws attention. Edited May 9, 2008 by Y2HH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan4life_2007 Posted May 10, 2008 Author Share Posted May 10, 2008 I'll definitely send you a list before the deadline. I'm too drunk to do it right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan4life_2007 Posted May 10, 2008 Author Share Posted May 10, 2008 Thanks, Y2HH. That's exactly what I needed to hear. LOL. It's cool. I don't expect a cakewalk in CC. I'll just have to tough it out for 10 days. I was told that if I don't give them any s*** I can be out in 5. So I'll definitely be on my best behavior.

I was mistaken before, I thought CC meant Community College. Seriously, ten days in solitary may be better than five in the gp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm too drunk to do it right now. just a thought, if I was about to go to jail for a drunk driving related offense, I would realize that talking about being drunk comes off as very stupid and childish and perhaps you have not learned all the lessons. Being under the influence of anything from a stiff dick to heroin involves risks. People, especially young guys, do very stupid things when in that condition. There is a point where you can enjoy alcohol without being too drunk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan4life_2007 Posted May 15, 2008 Author Share Posted May 15, 2008 (edited) Tex, my mistake was getting behind the wheel of a car while drunk. Not actually being drunk. And I'm not going to apologize to anybody for getting drunk. I like to drink and I don't care who knows about it. The night I flipped my SUV was a little over a year ago. I have not gone anywhere near a car after drinking since that night. And I don't plan to ever again. I've lost a lot of money because of one dumbass mistake. Well over $ 3,000. I also lost a very good car. I've had to go to classes. I've had to miss work because of these classes. I also have to pay for them. I've been to court something like 15 times in the last year or so. And of course I'm going to jail for 10 days. So believe me when I say that I've definitely learned my lesson.

It normally takes something very real to make people understand the consequences of driving drunk and I think this situation was his. You shouldnt let a mistake like that dictate the rest of your life though. As long as you understand the severity and make the extra effort to never do it again than people shoudlnt judge you based on a mistake.

Mplssoxfan Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 I'm a little late, and I hope you haven't gone in yet. Whatever you do, do not go in either drunk or smelling of liquor. That means that you shouldn't have one last fling the night before you surrender. If you want to have that one last fling, do it a couple of nights before. If you only have to serve 10 days of a longer suspended sentence, you run the chance that the suspension will be revoked and you have to serve the entire sentence.

Also they can deny your entry to jail and the state can file an escape charge equal to the level of crime you pled to. So yeah, don't drink for days before going in.

So you f***ed up twice. There's also nothing wrong with getting smashed as long as you're not driving or doing something risking the health of others regardless if you been convicted of a DUI or not.
