rubberdinghy Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 AWESOME! August 20, 2008Brian CaldwellRecord staffKITCHENERJames Boppre broke all the rules of house arrest when he went for a late-night drive in his pickup truck last month.He did not observe his curfew.He did not remain sober.He did not keep the peace.And as he crashed into aKitchener car lot -- driving naked while speeding, drunk, high on crack cocaine and next to a naked prostitute -- he was not being of good behaviour."This is one of the most flamboyant, flaming relapses I've ever seen," defence lawyer Brennan Smart said. "It's almost the stuff of comedy writers."Boppre, 39, of Waterloo, already had a drunk driving record when he was convicted last year of two weapons offences and breach of recognizance.He received a nine-month conditional sentence of house arrest and went to a rehabilitation facility, where he was an "exemplary resident."Once out and living with his sister, Boppre thought he had his problem under control and gradually began drinking and taking drugs again.Then, on the night of July 30, he completely snapped."He just jumped in with both feet," Smart said. "It's astounding."The former owner of a landscaping business with a six-figure income, Boppre got drunk, went out in his truck and picked up a prostitute at a Kitchenerintersection.Crown prosecutor Mark Poland said Boppre then parked on East Avenue and smoked crack with the woman before they both took their clothes off.Boppre sped away on East, masturbating while watching the woman masturbate, then missed a curve, went over an island and crashed into a parked car at the intersection of Weber Street.Witnesses saw Boppre grab his clothes and dress while running away, leaving the accident and the naked woman behind.He was arrested after one of the witnesses followed him behind a nearby plaza and gave police a description."I think Your Honour would struggle to find a more egregious breach," Poland told Justice Colin Westman."It holds the conditional sentencing regime up to ridicule."Poland argued for a six-month jail term after Boppre -- supported in court by two rows of friends and relatives -- pleaded guilty yesterday to impaired driving, possession of crack cocaine and leaving the scene of an accident.Westman, however, disagreed the house arrest was a failure because Boppre unravelled with about a month to go.He credited Boppre with doing well for so long and gave him just four months in jail -- the minimum penalty given his three previous drunk driving convictions."I want to reward you for the efforts you've made," Westman said.Boppre was also prohibited from driving for five years and placed on probation for three years, with a term he get recommended counselling.Smart said Boppre has a supportive family and wants to try rehab again to beat his "debilitating addiction."

Northern Wish Posted August 20, 2008 Report Share Posted August 20, 2008 And in other crazy drug and automobile related news.....Minor wreck turns into deadly trauma in Florida Aug 19 07:18 PM US/EasternLAKE HAMILTON, Fla. (AP) - A Florida man was arrested after allegedly going on a violent rampage after a minor fender-bender, slashing and stabbing the occupants of a car, then running over and killing a woman who had been riding in another nearby vehicle. Casey Weldon Till, 26, of Haines City, faces murder and carjacking charges after the attacks involving family members traveling in two vehicles. The Polk County Sheriff's Office tracked Till to his home through a pill bottle left at the scene late Sunday night. Police allege that he killed Odalis Cespedes, 41, by running her over twice. Till told police he was high on crack at the time. The violence apparently unfolded after Till's minivan slammed into a stopped car being driven by Cespedes' daughter, 19-year-old Ivon Despaigne, and her boyfriend, 21-year-old Angel Gonzalez, of Kissimmee. When the couple got out to check the damage, Till allegedly slashed Gonzalez's throat and stabbed Despaigne in the neck. Investigators say Till then got into the couple's car and repeatedly rammed the vehicle ahead, occupied by Cespedes, her husband, 41-year-old Mario Despaigne, and their 6-month-old granddaughter. The couple got their granddaughter out of the car seat and Cespedes was trying to flee with the baby in her arms when she was killed, Mario Despaigne said in an interview with The Ledger, which was conducted through an interpreter. Mario Despaigne said Till drove over his wife's leg, then ran over her again after seeing she was still moving. Despaigne said he grabbed the baby. Then Gonzalez got into Till's van and hit him, then tried to back over him, but Till rolled out of the way, according to the arrest report. Till then allegedly ran back to his van, ignoring commands to stop from a Lake Hamilton police officer who happened upon the scene. Till sped off, hitting officer David Hurst in the arm and midsection with the van's open door. Till had locked himself in his bathroom and cut his wrists by the time investigators found him, the report said. He allegedly admitted the attacks to his wife and mother. The police report listed Gonzalez and Ivon Despaigne in critical condition, but a local hospital would not provide information about their condition Tuesday. Till was being held Tuesday in the Polk County Jail on charges of murder, attempted murder, aggravated battery on a law enforcement officer, carjacking and improper exhibition of a weapon. It was not immediately known if Till had an attorney. Copyright 2008 The Associated Press. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed.
