Surprise! Paul Pelosi, Who Almost Killed Someone When Driving Drunk and Stoned, Gets a Slap on the Wrist

There will be zero stories in the leftwing corporate propaganda media about privilege concerning Paul Pelosi.

Remember, they originally tried to bury this and cover it up. It was only public outcry over the obvious Bright-of-Day Corruption that forced the prosecutor to pretend to be an impartial dispenser of justice.

The "prosecutor" only charged Pelosi with two misdemeanors -- minor stuff, considering he wrecked two cars and nearly killed someone. And his blood had something in it with more kick than mere alcohol.

And then the prosecutor dismissed one of those charges "in the interest of justice."

And then came the slap on the wrist:

The sentence includes a jail term of five days, but not really. The presiding judge gave Pelosi credit for four days. Two of those days were "actual time served", and two were for "conduct credits". In California, there is an automatic reduction for misdemeanor sentences which cuts them in half. How are the two days calculated? Pelosi was arrested and taken to jail before midnight. Those few minutes are credited as a "day" in custody. Once he was released the next morning, he was credited with another day. The "fifth" day will be spent in an 8-hour work program. Meaning -- he will likely show up somewhere and read a book. So, other than spending a single night in a cell Pelosi will spend no time in an actual cell for nearly killing someone while he was drunk.

The rest of his sentence includes engaging in a three-month drunk driving program and one year with an ignition interlock device. He got three years probation and he must pay restitution. Raise your glass, Paul. Sweet deal.

Pelosi had no chance of prevailing at trial, and the "mystery" woman in the passenger seat of his now destroyed Porsche won't have to appear as a witness and detail what Paul drank and consumed beforehand and what she was doing when Paul "blew" through a stop sign.

I didn't know about that.

hey everyone make sure you wave your flags, yayyyy
