Public Defense

Judge for a Day III

By Gideon

Here’s another installment of “Judge for a day”. The setup, for new readers, is simple. I give you a factual scenario, you tell me what sentence you’d impose as a judge.

The facts are as follows: Defendant is involved in a DUI accident. It is probably his fault. The other car is damaged and the occupants of that car suffer serious injuries, but none that are life threatening or that will result in permanent loss of limbs or functions. The defendant is a young adult with no prior record and good family structure and employment history.

What’s your sentence?
