Re: Violation of Probation

The reason is to allow you to grow apart from him because
he's a scofflaw who's so diffident he can't be bothered to
read the probation agreement he signed. Fine. As Strother
Martin said in Cool Hand Luke, "He wants it? He GITs it."

He gets the original sentence imposed, plus the full whack
for driving while revoked on top of that, with no slack
because he's caused everyone a lot of trouble and been a
pain in the butt for everyone to boot.

Let me ask you a question. Do you think this loser is going
to get any better?
