For someone to be out of jail on the street after having been caught three times driving drunk and endangering the lives of everyone else on the road we have to assume that the judge who released him shares his love for alcohol and is also a drunk. So I'm betting the judge or judges who released him in the past are avid drinkers. The judges names should be in this article so voters know who the drunk judges are for the next election.

30 years sounds reasonable.
