Hall of famer Bruce Smith finally pleads guilty today for a DUI arrest last May in my humble hometown of Virginia Beach. Last year a stunning 2,300 DUI arrests were made in the city of Virginia Beach alone. But out of all the information I could read on Bruce's DUI, none shocked me more than his defense in court in July. "His attorney, Larry Cardon, said at Smith's first trial in July that the 19-year NFL veteran's 11 knee surgeries made it difficult for him to walk a straight line heel-to-toe and stand on one leg for 30 seconds." Pause for reaction. I don't know about all of you but this clearly is one of the saddest arguments I have ever heard. But damn I love lawyers. So Cheers Bruce, you have slightly tarnished your sterling reputation, but I still love ya!
I think Lickstein could of come up with a better defense then that.
ReplyDeleteOnly the finest come out of Virginia Tech...Vick brothers anyone?
ReplyDeleteI think the judge would have let him go freely if he looked at the judge the same way he looks on that cover.
