He is certainly driving slower now.
At… Atooma
I am just guessing here but if no dealers THEN NO USERS
SOLUTION— lock up ALL DEALERS
Bail is set as a precautionary measure to ensure that you show up to court it is not intended to be a jail sentence, and and yes drugs are bad but people are willingly buying them he is not forcing anyone at gunpoint it’s not just they dealers Who are the problem it’s the users they are the ones robbing and stealing ijs
You’re right about the bail but that’s what judges have to work with. Sadly, this scum will do three years of a 70-year prison sentence, get released early and in four years he’ll be voting again!
Clark was released from the Escambia County Jail on a $47,000 bond. Should have never been allowed to bail out – money to bail out with was drug money whether it was his or someone else’s you think this poison peddler hangs out with upstanding law abiding citizens?
