| #5 He's not getting special treatment. Here in California we have Penal Code 1000. Everyone is entitled to go through a very Micky Mouse rehab which doesn't include any kind of residential treatment. He is getting, because he can pay for it, treatment that is much more extensive. The legislature passed it long ago and that's all there is to it. If he completes the program he is entitled to a dismissal of the drug charges in eighteen months. The DUI is not subject to dismissal under this program. |

| #4 So they're just going to forget about the 100 mph car chase, DUI, and the whole "putting the public in grievous peril" thingys? All he has to do is go live in some luxury treatment complex for a couple of weeks? I wish I had it so good; maid service, gourmet meals, we arent talking about a state run facility here. I don't get it, where are all the screeching harpies now, when someone really is getting off the hook for being in the right family. |

| #3 Not for the second one, Brer. This was his first DUI. The earlier marijuana conviction was not whilst driving. Besides, he's doing so well in rehab. According to the article, all the first-timers get a slap on the wrist. No special treatment here. These aren't the droids you're looking for. He can go about his business. Move along. |

| #2 If I take a copy of this article to my second DUI hearing will I get off with just probation too? I think not. |

| #1 He's a repeat offender and posed a significant safety hazard--but on the other hand, getting a Prius up into triple digits is so amazing it just has to be a mitigating factor in sentencing. |
