A Lesson Never Learned

Bobbi Landis, 31 of Springfield, has yet to learn her lesson when it comes to driving revoked. Last Tuesday, November 20th, Deputy Sabin and Corporal Carter arrested Landis and charged her with driving revoked for DUI and shoplifting. She quickly posted the $500 bond set by Magistrate Timbrook and was free to go. Today, she was arrested again, this time by Deputy Frame, for driving revoked for DUI. Her bond was set, this time at $1,000, and she easily came up with the $100 needed for the bonding company to post her bond.

The WV Code states that "any person who drives a motor vehicle on any public highway of this state at a time when his or her privilege to do so has been lawfully revoked for driving under the influence of alcohol is, for the first offense, guilty of a misdemeanor and, upon conviction thereof, shall be confined in a county or regional jail for six months and in addition to the mandatory jail sentence, shall be fined not less than one hundred dollars nor more than five hundred dollars."

I'm sure within the next few days she'll be seen driving around Springfield in her loud Chevy Cavalier, and with any luck the next bond will be a CASH ONLY bond which may take her a little while to gather up. If she's convicted of the two counts of driving while revoked for DUI, which there should be no reason in this world for her not to be, she should be heading off to the regional jail for at least six months.
