Good for the judge for doing what was supposed to have been done. I bet he was shocked that he actually had to go to jail, since most of these politicians believe they're above the law.
If he had just come out and said he had a problem with alcohol, he could have had a nice vacation down the Cape at the taxpayers expense and never seen the inside of a jail cell. Instead, he has to face the same consequences that any of us would have had to face.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

Maybe he should have saved the mouthwash and toothpaste for the big house, 'cause he'll probably need it!

Yea I saw this on the news this morning(NECN). They had video of the proceedings and he looked mortified when the judge told him he was going to jail. The judge was pissed off big time. Less than a week after his parol he was drinking at home. He's blaming it on toothpaste and mouthwash! His look was priceless and the best part was he represented himself! He sounded weak and pathetic. What a loser and I'm glad he's off to jail. Bye Bye!

The judge showed tremendous courage today. I noticed when Galuccio walked by the clerk and the probation officer they didn't look at him because I'm sure they had to see him when seeking employment in the same district court that is in his district. It was reported that the in-home breat test reading was .03 and I believe that was suppose to be .30. One station said one way and one reported it the other way. Galuccio has had several O.U.I.'s broomed. One clerk said he had reason to believe he had operated after drinking but felt no complaint should issue several years ago. wink wink nod nod

No one should feels bad the peckerhead got away with the drunk driving charge when he left the scene of the crash that injured three people.

It'll be interesting to see what happens to the retired fire lt. that hit and killed the pedestrian who did exactly the same thing. Drove away drunk and then turns himself in sober.
