Why? This guy committed a crime and was sentenced. That's the system working.

He can attempt to vacate the plea deal if he wants, but no judge has to grant his request.

I'm sorry to hijack another post but Is there a good resource out there for DC bike advocacy?

I was a hit and run victim this year and I can't seem to get any good answers on how I can get my case moved from civil to criminal. A witness stopped the woman who hit me after she fled from the scene so the police have her info. She was uninsured and on expired tags and the only recourse MPD offered me was to attend her traffic court appearance??? I can't fathom why I can't get this moved into the criminal side of things. I get such mixed singles from the officer assigned to my case and the DC hit and run department.

It happened January 19 so is it too late anyways?

So give MARC more money so that we might have a way to get to Harper's Ferry on weekends. Am I speaking a foreign language or something?

It’s meaningless to YOU, it’s an important distinction for those in charge of money and operations.

Ticket? In DC? Hahaha hahaha hahaha ....

Congrats!

Welcome to living in DC! I feel like every neighborhood is constantly under construction. Going to be hard to avoid. I've gotten used to it.

I haven't had boiled peanuts since I lived in LA... And by LA, of course, I mean Lower Alabama.

Confirmed they are on the menu!

I love stumpy 🌸

>MARC is commuter rail. Not public transit

today in meaningless distinctions.

It’s not about it being cost-neutral, it’s about where’s the money coming from to justify the service. Workers need to be paid and moneys doesn’t grow on trees. MARC is commuter rail. Not public transit

There is something seriously wrong with the DC judicial system.

Been in this situation twice before. It sucks, but nothing you can really do outside of breaking your lease. Earplugs and noise canceling headphones do go a long way, however.

It’s been since pre-panda, but we really enjoyed St Regis and Blue Duck Tavern. Neither are cheap, but both are great. Willard is also notable.

A weekend train to Harper's Ferry, for instance, would probably be pretty fuckin popular.

But also, I wish we would stop doing this thing where public transit is always expected to be cost-neutral. Nobody ever asks "Are these roads going to pay for themselves"

Can we add more years for pulling this shit?

I have never seen them in NOVA. A friend of mine loves them and has to make his own unless he goes down to the southern part of Virginia.

How is he not in prison for 20+???

It's not real.
