a suspicion. He also crossed lanes of traffic on 1-70 and was driving in the wrong lane and speeding.

Per noon news on KWCH "charges dismissed", something about paperwork. Smells like white supremacy
in a red state.

What a joke. Not enough pertinent information? He was driving drunk, the wrong way on the interstate, evading police. I don't know about you but any one of those things is pertinent information if were you or me.

Lets watch how he explains his way out of what he did and how come he is not paying for it. Should be really interesting.

Driving the wrong way on interstate could have killed innocent people. Wonder if they would have dropped
charges if he had?

there are concrete blocks in the center of I-70 all the way through Topeka with entrances that would be very difficult to get on going the wrong way except for one on ramp that is right in front of the police station downtown. Doing what he did too some doing apparently.

It is sickening that they let this go. I hope there is pressure on them to do otherwise but in this state, the way we got clobbered in the last election, I doubt there will be anything more about it.
