OT: Las Vegas Raiders WR Henry Ruggs to be charged with DUI resulting in death

[AZ Native]

I just figured Ouchie was making up new words.

Well, his most often repeated phrase is “you’re putting words in my mouth".

I'm not touching this.

You know you can choose off the grid if it bothers you so much. Find a remote location with few municipal codes. Don’t use a smart phone or computer. Buy a used car from the 70s or 80s and learn how to keep it up yourself. Don’t use streaming or cable subscription services. Keep away from urban areas. It’s possible to live like it’s the 80s, it’s just not as comfortable, enjoyable or safe.

Stay off the 80's. The 80's were awesome.

Cops Say Raiders’ Henry Ruggs Screamed at Them After Deadly Drunken Crash

Steve Marcus/GettyLas Vegas Raiders wide receiver Henry Ruggs III was incoherent and combative after the high-speed DUI crash that killed a young woman—trying to pull out his IVs at the hospital and screaming at cops, according to a police report.“Get me the **** out of here,” Ruggs, 22, yelled...

Heartbreaking accounts from the Good Samaritans that tried to save Tina's life.

Also kind of shocking (to me) that the bail was set at $150k when prosecutors wanted $1 million.

$1 million sounds excessive. Some chic shot a dude in the head with a 9mm at a traffic light a couple weeks ago (road rage incident) and hers was set at $500k. Just thinking the prosecution is playing into the flair and his economical status (seems par for the course these days), and the judge is keeping things in check. He probably isn’t getting a break on the bail, but rather that’s the amount that fits the charges.

150K is chump change to him. Bail should be tied to economic level so it is the same burden for everyone

 

[blindseyed]

All in all this is just a sad situation all around

I agree, but I don’t think that is how the system is set up.

It’s a part of it.

What Factors Influence A Bail Amount?

When you or someone you love has been arrested and charged with a crime, securing prompt bail is essential. However, determining bail amounts often depends on a wide variety of factors.

I'll never understand this kind of thing. It's just stupid. "Playing for my brother" because he can't. Oh, and why can't he? Because he carelessly killed someone.

Hey kadarious: it shouldn’t take killing a person to know you’re not supposed to drive 150+ mph while drunk. ****.

Wtf? Hadn’t even heard about this one. Raiders are a complete mess.

Wtf? Hadn’t even heard about this one. Raiders are a complete mess.

The one thing Mayock has going for him is that Gruden was totally in charge of that roster. Mayock was just there to help evaluate the talent and give input. Everything was on Gruden's shoulders. Mayock is not in charge of taking out the trash.

I don't think we'll see this that the federal level anytime soon, but I can see states mandating this. The only issue I see with the federal government is grandfatheing older cars because having to install someone for someone who lives in poverty could be looked at as a burden to those who live in rural areas without the means to pay for it.

I don’t think cars that will be made prior to the date will ever be required to be retrofitted

My rental car last week was a 2022 Hyundai Sonata. It literally wouldn't drive without the seatbelt on.

If you swerved at all it would ask if you are tired and need a coffee break.

If you had something in the back seat it would ask you to make sure there was no kids in the back before you got out.

All of this tech exists and is already being utilized.
