It should be a whole new chapter in Law Enforcement Evasion 101: Just get rid of the instrumentality necessary for the cops to lower the boom on ya. After all, you can't serve jail time if you make sure there's no jail standing. You can't be tailed by that cop on the corner after pulling a bank job if his cruiser has four flat tires. And you damn sure can't blow a high BAC if you take out the breathalyzer van!Cops in Montgomery County, Texas say that when they pulled over a suspected drunk driver last weekend, they ended up getting two for the price of one -- but at a terrible price well below the going rate (link to full story at bottom). They say that when Suspect #1 went berzerk and tried to hoof it, they had to call in the ol' BAC van as back up. And that's when all hell broke loose...
It seems that a second driver -- the above-pictured 25-year-old Calli Dretke -- was either really drunk and/or just really hates BAC Vans. Because cops say that as they tried to detain Suspect #1, Dretke drove up from behind, swerved onto the highway's shoulder, and violently deposited her car right into back of the BAC van!And that was just as an Opening Attraction! Cops says this bombed breathalyzer opponent (allegedly) next took to task the other two cop cars on the scene -- bashing the hell out of them as well (maybe she thought there was a breathalyzer inside of them too?).
For her alleged efforts, cops say this bombed-out demolition derby broad (allegedly) broke one cop's leg and didn't do the three cop vehicles any favors either. Cops tossed her blitzed ass (allegedly) in the hoosegow on $50,000 bond. There, at least, I hope this pickled piece of work has finally found some peace in her life -- since there should be nary a breathalyzer in sight down in the can.

Postscript: Good Grief! This is another one from like 2 weeks ago. But I live an incredibly hectic work life, meaning that if I find a few hours of free time here and there, I'm going to be writing posts to use in the future (even if it may not be for a few weeks). That practice helps me out in order to still keep posting on a daily basis even when I have NO TIME to be doing so contemporaneously.
ReplyDeleteI once did a ride along with local police for the Leadership program here....it was the 11:00 p.m. to 3:00 a.m. shift on St. Patty's Day.....yeah, a very eventful night. Chased a drunk guy (he was ALL over the road!) on the highway, got up to 90 mph, and he finally saw the flashing lights and pulled over at the next exit, and promptly ran into the guardrail, wrecking his car. His words as he sat in the back seat, cuffed and crying like a baby with snot running down his nose? "F*@k me!" and I'm just thinking, "Good grief, what a dumbass!" Interesting night =)
ReplyDeleteThe "occupiers," BTW, hate 5-0 tasking like that so hard against the drunks. "Fuck the Police," they'd say (or at least did say in huge banners at last week's NYC "occupy" protests). Hey, they are the 99%!
ReplyDeleteI, on the other hand, have a healthy respect for the police....they carry guns, and they can shoot you with it! Only if necessary, of course, but still, they can shoot you!
ReplyDeleteI like the police except when they pull me over. Hey, I drive like Harvey Keitel on Pulp Fiction. The cops just need to understand and accept that.
ReplyDeleteI would like to be deputized and be able to make arrests =) I could make the city alot of dough passing out tickets to all the dumbasses on the road....
ReplyDeleteLooks like you'd have to slap the ol' cuffs on me.
ReplyDeleteDon't think I won't Mister! haha!
ReplyDeleteJust don't give me the ol' Costanza treatment (chained to a bedpost). As pathetic as I might be, I've never been quite as pathetic as him. Frankly, he deserved that kind of treatment.
ReplyDelete"$8?! I wasted the whole morning on you for $8?!" And then she took his clothes and left him chained.....so classic =) Thanks for making me laugh!
ReplyDeleteIf you recall his character, he always had only a few bucks in the wallet (much like me) or only had large bills that no street vendor would change out. There's a certain genius to such a man.
ReplyDeleteThen that would be the only thing you would have in common with George =) He's kinda awful, but in a funny way, whereas you are not awful at all AND you're still funny =)
ReplyDeleteI always viewed him as a psychotic sort of cartoon character, not to be taken very seriously. But how that little fat bald man got so many broads in the sack, I'll never know.
ReplyDeleteGreat observation and one that I've wondered about often....that and the fact that Elaine dated quite a few less than attractive guys - didn't make sense!
ReplyDeleteMaybe she was just trying to ensure that everyone got their fair share, since she came out recently and said that everyone should vote for Obama. (I largely give a pass to A-Listers when they spew their political drivel, but when it comes to TV stars: S-T-F-U!).
ReplyDeleteI try not to listen to any famous person (other than you, of course!) when they talk politics....they're entertainers, in the words of Kurt Cobain, 'entertain me!'
ReplyDeleteI remember Elvis once telling a reporter (when asked about the Vietnam War), "Honey, I'm just an entertainer, and I'd just as soon keep my views to myself." How refreshing something like that would be nowadays.
ReplyDeleteI loved Elvis - my mom loved him, so we grew up listening to him....that's just one more reason to love him =) That would be so incredibly refreshing, wouldn't it? I'd have TONS more respect for any entertainer who could say that today!
ReplyDeleteI could take the entertainers spouting their political views if they would ever do so in reasonably intelligent fashion instead of telling me whom I NEED to vote for or spewing the typical mean-spirited leftist 20 percenter talking points like some kind of robot. There are decent ways of expressing leftist and right-winger viewpoints which (even if I may not agree) I'll at least respect if I hear them coming from a sincere and at least somewhat free-thinking individual.
