The Idiocity of the Florida Justice System Strikes Again
Posted by Thomas the Terrible on May 29, 2008
People say professional athletes are treated special when the Po Po & the courts are involved and for the most part that really isn’t true when you look at the sentences of normal people verses athletes. Then there’s Florida….
Sunday was a busy day for the People’s Princess Joakim Noah. Hours after being arrested and charged with marijuana and alcohol offenses, the Bulls’ center was issued two traffic citations by University of Florida police.
According to the Gainesville Sun, campus police stopped a speeding Hummer driven by Noah and eventually issued citations for driving with a suspended license without knowledge and for not wearing a seat belt.
Why was his license suspended in the first place? Looks like the NBA has their own little Pacman.
Now if it was me, Joel or any number of people caught driving on a suspended license we would go directly to jail without passing go and collecting two hundred dollars.
Nothing like weed, beer, and a speeding Hummer to make the chicks or in your case male Gates think you’re sexy! Not very good judgments there buddy.
The stop occurred at around 7:20 p.m. Sunday, later around 1:50 a.m., Gainesville Po Po issued notices for Noah to make a June court appearance after stopping Noah for carrying an alcoholic beverage in a plastic cup on a public sidewalk and later finding marijuana in his pants pocket.
Now if all this happened to me I’m sure I would be bailed out awaiting trial. But this is the People’s Princess we’re talking about here. Noah accepted a deferred prosecution agreement Wednesday in his marijuana possession case, resulting in six months’ probation and a $200 fine.
Ouch what a hefty fine. (Note the sarcasm because I’m laying it on rather thick)
The charges will be dropped in six months if Noah meets the terms of his probation.
Noah also must pay $206 in traffic fines for two citations he received Sunday on the University of Florida campus.
Again most people are arrested and booked when caught driving with a suspended license and the fines, for the most part, are considerably higher. Maybe the judicial system thought better of placing Noah in custody since he already looks like a prison bitch without actually having been to prison. After all he might get violated; then again can a willing soul be violated?
Florida coach Billy Donovan and Eddie Munster look-a-like told the Gainesville Sun that he talked to Noah.

“He’s realized he made a mistake,” Donovan told the newspaper. “I want to see what happens with everything that went on there. In my conversation with him, he feels bad.
“The thing I’ve tried to talk to him about is there are so many young kids who look up to him, and he’s such a giving kid and he’s always given his time. He needs to turn this into a positive and being able to help young kids because he has a great opportunity to really help a lot of people. I told him to try to turn this into a positive because he’s got enough of a personality that he can do that.”
There are mistakes and there are people who think they are above the law. Am I really supposed to believe that some careless athlete who can’t find a taxi or a friend to drive him, and does other illegal activities “feels bad” about it. I’m willing to bet he is smoking weed right now.

Remember I still need “bail” money!!! Click here for details.

I’m going to Gainesville. If that’s the limit of what can happen to you after being caught with weed and drinking publicly, that’s where I need to hang out.
