Why don't the priors count?



An allegedly impaired driver in Cookeville ran off the road and slammed into a SUV parked in a driveway. The owner was sleeping in the house. His SUV was totalled and his house shook from the impact. He wonders why the prior DUI convictions of the impaired driver don't count. They are more than 10 years old. Welcome to our world Larry. Most prosecutors wonder the same thing.

The victim in this case is one of the best auto mechanics I've ever known and an awfully good guy. I'm just glad no one was between the driver and the SUV. Read the story in the Herald Citizen at:
