Following up on the earlier thread #msg-1013933 about my wife spotting a thief robbing her church and the pastor's car: The perp pled guilty last week and was fined $800.
A few years ago, my wife was pulled over on I-66 doing 92 in a 75 at 5 o'clock in the morning. It was a rural area on one of those stretches where you don't see another car for minutes at a time. Well, they got her with radar. Over 90 is automatically reckless driving. We spent $2,000 on an attorney who was successful in having the charge reduced, and we were fined $1,000. Pretty expensive, but fair.
Because, you know, in today's world it's worse by far to drive 15 miles over the speed limit on a desolate back-country road than it is to be caught red-handed burglarizing a church office and car.
