Board and out of curiosity I just did a search on YSS23 name on the internet. I only did this because 6 months ago when I left, H's son was in trouble with the law for about the 4th time and I was curious as to what became of his case. Well I was unable to find out what happened with his case that I was aware of, but I found out that he got arrested 4 days after I moved out and he just got arrest again about a month ago. Each one of these cases are driving under the influence of alcohol/drugs. This last time was alcohol/drugs, suspended license and improper lane changes.

Just how long is it before they lock him up for a while? Seems like he needs to be put away for a bit just to straighten his ass up! His parents sure aren't helping him!

Yep it sure is interesting to find out that the skids just get worse after we leave and it actually WASN'T all of our fault!!! }:)

Mind you I was involved in H's life for a total of 2.5 years. And for most of that time this son didn't come around until the last 3 months of me living in that home, when this son moved in because BM had to kick him out. This son was the one that told so many viscous ridiculous lies about me. I can still hear H saying to me "you expect me to believe you over my son". Thank God I woke up!

There has long been and still exists to some degree to not be hard on alcohol offenses because "But for the grace of God go I" attitude among the judges who quite possibly committed the same offense while at (law) school but luckily wasn't caught or got off easy themselves.

Perhaps there will be a change in this as we get more and more females on the benches but until we can find room in prisons that's not an quick answer. Filled with drug users who haven't committed any other crime because of mandatory sentencing laws under our poorly conceived "War on Drugs" we can't punish real and violent offenders.

Driving under the influence should, in my opinion, be treated as attempted murder even if nobody was hurt. There is simply no excuse for a sober individual deliberately undertaking binge drinking with no way planned to keep away from the wheel. Don't think I'm some teetotaler either I've done my share and didn't do the time. I'm older and wiser is all.

Orange County--by the way if that's where you live. I was just there about a week ago and fell in love! My son is stationed there. If he decides to make it his home, I will for sure follow.

I am really wishing no ill will on what I guess I can still call my step son. I honestly think that is what ultimately what ended up happening between H and I and all people involved. I showed principals. I showed respect. I showed discipline. I feel like H reached for me cause he was looking for all those things and wanted them for his own children and himself. At the same time he had too many negative people involved that he choose the easier way out.

After what I discovered today, at first yes I felt relief that I wasn't crazy. But now I am sad. The boy needs help. And hate to admit that I feel going to prison just might help him more than his parents can. Don't even know why I am caring so much. Maybe it's cause of the mental break downs I witnessed with this boy. Or maybe it's because of the blinders I see with people involved in his life. Or maybe I still love H and I hurt for him.

But not my problem to bear. Right?

The court website doesn't given much information. Besides I really don't need to focus on this although it is bothering me. I was kicked to to curb so to speak. I need to focus on my well adjusted kids, kid in laws, g'babies and future g'baby. This is not a slap at H or his kids. But I have to think...pat myself on back...my kids aren't fucked up.
