SexiAlexei Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 That seems like a very light sentence. $4,500 and a few months suspension? (I see that it was extended, but originally it wasn't very long) That's lighter than drunk driving and she actually hit and almost paralyzed a man. I would have expected some sort of jail time even if it was suspended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason I thought it happened here but she was Australian... Guess that's what I get for not reading the original report, and just the Huffington Post website.

Yeah, they say she's from Port Fairy, but fail to say that Port Fairy is in Australia. The date on the court document being dd/mm/yyyy gave away that it wasn't US, though.

I bet I could poll the people I know and 75% would say Illinois blows and if they could they would leave in a heartbeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 (edited) Yeah, Illinois people tend to be pretty pessimistic. Illinois is easily the best place to live of all the surrounding states, at least, and the funny thing is that most of the people who say Illinois is one of the worst places would also say that they'd never live in those surrounding states (or the South).

I guess that depends on whether or not your definition of "best place to live" is impacted by tax rates, government corruption, or cost of living.
