Pile those charges on and keep him locked up for as long as possible. Certainly in this case, there cannot be a pitiful plea deal, can there?
Too bad
Too bad this felon didn't run into a homeowner who could have saved the state the $3 million or more that it will now cost to keep the felon in jail. The hundreds of millions of dollars it costs in state oil money to keep these people in jail is one more cost that will be impossible to meet when oil income further declines.
Too bad, Joe. It seems as if
Too bad, Joe. It seems as if you've hit a losing streak. I guess that could be due in large part to the fact that you're a total loser. I love reading about chumps like you getting your ball nailed to a plywood board.

...for pointing a gun at a woman and body slamming her to the floor and pinning her down in front of her kids?!?!?!? JPD? DA? Something REALY BIG is missing on these charges!
