Ah yes, New Mexico. I live in New Mexico and I can tell you that this state is as corrupt as they come, top to bottom, with the exception of our new Republican Governor Susanna Martinez, and possibly a very few other politicians, I'm sure.
News stories of yet another school official, PRC member, cop or other public official being on the take or on drugs or abusing their position is almost a daily occurrence here. This place make Louisiana look like a fine example of how leadership should operate. The Democrats in power in Santa Fe are as corrupt as they come as well. They are in the process of killing a bill that would repeal the law that makes it very easy for illegal immigrants to get drivers licenses here. Why would they do that? Is it the right thing to do to keep illegal immigration illegal? Oh, but wait, with a driver's license, illegals can VOTE in New Mexico elections, including presidential elections. With out the illegal immigrant vote, democrats might not be in power here for long. NO WONDER they want to keep things the way they are. CORRUPT! By the way, former Governor Bill Richardson is probably going to be indicted one of these days for some of the illegal activity he was involved in as Governor. Unless of course he can pay off the prosecutors first.
Let's not even mention the fact that Albuquerque has just as many gang members as Dallas, despite being 1/4 the size. Or, for you math-impaired, FOUR TIMES AS MANY GANG MEMBERS as Dallas, per capita. No wonder Breaking Bad is set in Albuquerque. It's a reality show, more or less. I always carry my .45 when I go into Albuquerque, even the "nice" areas of town. I've been mad-dogged by gangbangers many times, and I am tired of it, frankly.
So that's my New Mexico rant. This place is a craphole, getting more ghetto by the day. I am looking forward to the day I put this place in my rearview.
So a guy getting tossed in solitary for 2 years and forgotten? Not that unbelievable for New Mexico. Glad he's getting the money - he deserves every dime.

DUI is a precrime arrest = until there is a victom there is no constitutional reason to arrest and jail some one hostage unless there is a victom - the poster is a nazi obviously saying DUI is a menace when no victom has complained of an injury its called habius corpus = show me the corpse ---- precrime is tyranny to the highest levels
victimless crime gets judges and their fellow BAR buddies rich as the attorneys do plea deals that are also unconstitutional - no one in a DUI is allowd a jury trial only bench trials and bench means bank in latin

Wow! That's pretty harsh. Then again....I live in Montana currently, and it isn't unusual for me to pick up the paper EVERY DAY and see someone arrested for their 5th or 8th DUI or whatever. They do a little time and get out and do it all over again. There are some here they should lose the key for.
This guy though has a legitimate gripe it sounds like.
So me of these people here in Montana are the ones who should get the solitary, or "special" treatment.
It's hard to believe it took 2 years for them to "remember him.

Wrong!
Certainly in the event that someone is charged with a felony (such as felony DUI)!
You are certainly going to have a jury trial if you so chose...where did you come up with the idea DUI's are restricted to a bench trial?

So you think drinking and driving is OK? Amazing. I'm guessing you drink and drive? Eventually you will have a victim. You may even murder somebody and yes if your drunk and kill someone it is murder.
Your whole argument is childish. When you drive drunk you infringe on the rights of others. That is a crime whether you acknowledge it or not.
You must have gotten your education on the law from drunks and criminals.
