So you got money for MARC lines other than Penn line to run on weekends?

For those of you interested in the case, I was curious and looked back through his charges to see what was going on with this. He is requesting a reduction in sentence because he thinks his plea deal (and that his lawyer said) his 2018 plea for possession of PCP would be served concurrently with his vehicular manslaughter plea.
Looking at the paperwork and plea deal he signed, those charges were filed separately and should be served separately. He seems to think (or that his lawyer at the time told him) that a statement on his plea deal that the government would not seek indictment or enhancement on remaining charges related to the manslaughter charge would apply to previous plea (which were separate cases).
TLDR: Dude has multiple plea-outs at multiple times for different charges, either his lawyer told him at the time or he thinks they were to be served concurrently rather than consecutively. Paperwork doesn't support that.

Metra in Chicago is a commuter rail and runs hourly service on many routes on weekends. It’s an easy way for Chicago to bring in tourists from the suburbs on weekends who then spend money in downtown.

I don’t think you can link directly to the document. When I click the link, it takes me back to the search field. You might want to throw it in Google Drive or something and share that way.
Is there anything we can do? Call the USAO’s office?
If he’s attempting to vacate his guilty plea, how does he not go back on trial for those charges?

Not only is Stumpy a symbol of resilience in an era of climate change, when it finally perishes it will be a symbol of how resilience can only carry one so far.
Either way, the longer it endures and the greater its fame spreads, the more good it does. Keep on keeping on, Stumpy.

His first motion to reopen the case was exactly that. But he’s since been able to have a PD attached to the motion and then to file a more comprehensive request. So rather than it being immediately struck down the government has been directed to respond.

No, actually. If a judge allows a guilty plea to be withdrawn then the case can be recharged and tried. It’s not double jeopardy to reset the proceedings to where they were immediately before the plea was reached.

They do have them and they are beyond horrible. First time no salt, they then dumped about a cup of salt on them. Same thing next time. Never again.

Sounds like he is just a felon with time on his hands filing pro se motions.

Sorry, but you can’t lay this at MPD’s feet. Reporting and court documents were clear that MPD did not give chase when he fled.

Though I’m sorry to say that I have never heard of anyone having luck getting a driver charged in similar circumstances. DC seems to have almost no one to advocate for strong justice for victims. And it’s certainly not going to spontaneously come from within our broken system.

I’m sorry this happened to your friend (I saw your previous post before it was removed). It must be painful to see that Little filed this motion. Based on the Judge’s comments at sentencing, it sounds extremely unlikely that his motion will be granted, though he of course has a right to ask.

Your library rules state that partons are bannable for "Engaging in bullying as defined by the Youth Bullying Prevention Act of 2012, effective September 14, 2012 (D.C. Law 19-167; 59 DCR 7820)." https://www.dclibrary.org/behavior
When I look up that statute, it includes bullying race, gender identity, and sexual orientation. Libs of Tiktok and Jack Posobiec bully for these on a daily basis. By your own rules, should they not be barred from DCPL with a category 3 violation for 1 month?

DC is actually quite tough on reckless and drunk driving. I know people who got a first offense in DC that were much tougher on them than people who got a 2nd offense in VA. His lawyer told him not to even bother attending the DMV hearing in DC because the 1y suspension was a 99% certainty.
