  1. This guy is the type to bail jump – so much history; a real bad boy living ground hog day over and over again. He’s going to end-up killing someone on the road sooner-or-later. We probably should have considered setting no bail until his court date because of his track record.

  2. With a record like his it would surprise me if he ever showed up in court! We should have considered no bail until his court date. This is the kind of guy who will sooner-or-later kill someone on the road. Almost a no brainer…
