License to kill, redefined.
Today’s dose of stupid comes from Lincoln, Nebraska in the form of a drunk driver. Not just any drunk driver, though. Because, you know, the usual is just way too boring. This wonderful piece of work decided she didn’t get it right the first time.
Claudia Bustamante, also known as our charming example of human moronicness, was stopped twice in the span of 2 hours by the same police officer. And both times, cited for DUI. The first time, at 1:13 AM, she had a blood alcohol content of twice what the legal limit is. Naturally, she was thrown into detox for it. That should have been the end of it right there, but then it wouldn’t have made the stupid list. At 3:09 AM, after her boyfriend had picked her up from detox and proceeded to follow her home–still well above the legal limit, she was stopped again. This time, local police weren’t so forgiving and threw her in jail with a DUI and a negligent driving charge. No word whatsoever on whether or not the boyfriend, who should have been the only driver in that situation in the first place, ended up getting stuck with the same charge for letting her drive after picking her up from detox.
I don’t doubt that everywhere you turn, you’re going to run into some measure of stupid people. And more than likely, they’re going to wind up in competition for the moron of the year award. But when you hand those people a license and keys to a vehicle, bad things almost always happen. In this case, the only bad thing happened to her in that she gets a nice comfortable jail cell until she regains her senses–if she ever had any in the first place. One can always hope, though the opinionated fool will take the opportunity to point out the probability of it happening is nearly nonexistent, that she winds up before a judge and walks away sans license. And please, can someone kindly wrap a clue by four around her boyfriend’s head? The month is still young, but August’s incredible moron award goes to either or both of these two. Smile. You’re on epic fail camera.
