JUDGEDUDE HELPS OUT CARMAN
Three cheers for Nebraska judge John Steinheider:
With some reluctance, County Judge John Steinheider ruled last week that Jacob H. Carman, 20, was not guilty of reckless driving on Sept. 5, when he was spotted by a trooper who then chased him at the top speed of his cruiser’s odometer - 128 mph.
“As much as it pains me to do it, speed and speed alone is not sufficient to establish reckless driving,” the judge told Carman on Friday.
Incidentally, Carman was riding a motorcycle.
