Following Lindsay Lohan's lead, a Cook County man (FINALLY) agreed to plead guilty to driving with a suspended license after his 25th offense.
Just want to make sure that sunk in: his 25th offense.
Among other things he ran red lights, a DUI, a second DUI and, last but not least, drove around town with a suspended license. While Florida's oddballs still have him beat, it is nevertheless baffling that the man told the judge that he was "wrong for driving." Perhaps he should have considered that after being sentenced to jail in '99 after his second DUI. Or even sooner, like on his 15th charge of driving with a suspended license, when his crime became a felony.
Anyway, 45-year-old Willie Mabry asked for a trial, and admitted he was wrong, which will thankfully get him off the streets for 3 to 7 years. Then again, this is America, so it will probably only keep him off the streets for ... wait, how the hell long is Paris in jail for? Well, a few weeks longer than that.

Stroger Makes Hollywood Play


The reader asked a lawyer in a getting around chicago piece about certain crimes.
the lawyer said:
first dui - you'll get off with a slap on the wrist
second dui - varying levels of fucked.
never do it the first time, but never never do it again. the 25th, i think for once, is worthy of some jail time.
I would trust the dog in the photo to get me where I'm going before I'd get into a car with this Willie Mabry character!
Wait a minute, that dog doesn't look handicapped! The nerve! His bitch must work at the DMV.
Prescott: I think that's Daley's cousin's dog.
