I suppose he could be charged with a drinking DUI without blowing if caught drinking out of a bottle and driving, passed out with a bottle of booze in his lap, witnesses that say ge was drinking.
He was in fact charged with DUI, the I ithis case being drugs , which he admitted to.
Up here DUI is treated and punished very seriously. At .08 , automatic 1 year suspended liscence , heavy fine $1-5 k, breathalizer device installed , plus you have a criminal record so in some cases people Lose jobs or are prevented from getting into careers. Plus good luck finding car insurance for under 5-7 grand a year. Even if one blows under .08 there are fines, temporary suspensions and high insurance. Sad to hear you say it's not taken seriously in places down there.
As for piling on, more like watching a dumpster fire, there is a continual flow of attention grabbing stories around a person that many of us find polarizing and unlikeable as a person.
I agree with LB that it's gotten to a point where pity is the main reason for discussing, I do feel sorry for him, to be in such a state he must be having a tough, tough time. List his family, tarnished reputation, and not able to do the one thing ( outside sex) that he loved and lived for. He's most certainly a broken man . It can happen to anyone
