Fool me once? Shame on you. Fool me twice? Shame on you. Fool me 18 times? Shame on…we’re not gonna get fooled again.
LEBANON, Pa. (WGAL.com) — A Lebanon County man who has been convicted of drunken driving 18 times has been sentenced to two-and-a-quarter to five years in state prison.
James Myers, 56, had pleaded guilty to a DUI charge stemming from an October arrest in Palmyra, where he lives. Police said his blood-alcohol level was more than twice the legal limit when he was pulled over for speeding.
In July, Myers received a separate state prison sentence of two-and-a-half to five years for drunken driving, speeding and careless driving in Middlesex Township, Cumberland County.
You get arrested for the same crime 18 times and you promise a judge, the man who was the power to hold your fate in that little wooden hammer thingy, that you won’t do it again. Does anybody see something wrong with this crime scene, Det. Sipowitz?
There’s no “do over” statute, bub.
