I'm not trying to excuse drink driving but there was a case in the Scottish newspapers recently of a young girl convicted of drink driving who committed suicide in prison.
It was her first offence and the family where expecting a suspended sentence but the judge suddenly announced a prison sentence. She was bullying by the other inmates and target by prison officers for strip searches because she wouldn't complain. The lassie was obviously struggling - her hair was falling out because of stress and she ultimately took her own life. The family have complained about her treatment.
Now I'm not dismissing drink driving, but how come that lassie got the jail for a first offence and this git gets away with it, whilst she's already banned, is under the influence of drugs and doesn't have any insurance!!!
Completely bananas!!!
But then I never expected her to go to jail. I expected her to use Harvey was a literal get out of jail card.
