and how to advise them of how to not get one in the first place, which in his case was flee the scene, if it's his first offense I can guarantee the felony will go away, and the absolute worst he'll get is probation, and that's worse case scenario
True, but he’s looking at six figures easily for civil settlement

chicken feed to keep his license, wouldn't you say?
ETA: wasn't meant as a personal dig but something as simple as an umbrella would probably cover that

Richard is going to pay a shite load of money out to the injured kids for restitution. There would have been no reason for him to leave the scene if he had nothing to hide.

I drunkenly and jokingly started a go fund me for this purpose. So far I'm up to $5 and Owlie is the only one who donated.

Yeah, I expect he has sufficient insurance to cover it.

If I’m the parents of the injured, I’m asking for way more than he could possibly have in coverage. Not because I’m greedy but because he fled.
And I’m suing to get him disbarred if that’s at all possible. Essentially, I’m gonna (try to) ruin his life cause he has earned it.

Ask for the world, as you should, probably won’t settle for more than coverage. Baw ain’t losing his license if this is first offense

Isn’t this a felony? Thought it was said earlier that if he fled he’d lose his license? Oh well, I’m sure the legal profession will circle the wagons to protect its own, but I’d still stir up as
Much shite as I could.

The fact that he rendered aid may let him squeak by on the hit and run. He just quietly ghosted amid the confusion. It was a douche move, but he likely would rather face the negligent injury without evidence of impairment. He gave it some thought IMHO.

I'm not sold on the idea that this guy has to beat the BUI charge. There are plenty of forms of evidence other than a breathalyzer or a lab test. Surely there were people who'd had contact with him throughout the day, and observed his behavior.
I don't even think a BAC over 0.08% has to be shown for a conviction of BUI. It certainly doesn't in GA or MS, unless something has changed.

Is this a fact? According to his neighbor's interview on WBRZ, he never slowed down, tied the boat off, and GTFO there.

In Louisiana. The dui statute has “operating a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol” as a catch all that could likely be used to get a conviction based on third party evidence.

How are the injured kids doing?

He checked on the kids and STILL fled? I'd be interested to know who else was on the boat with him. I would have been calling 911 no matter who he was.

Nope, everyone looks at the umbrella as being the real deal. Underlying limits have to be exhausted prior the the umbrella limits being in play. Most of the attorneys i have dealt with carried min liability auto limits.
Also, his homeowner policy may not respond to this act or if they do, he will be non-renewed.

He was in self preservation/ lawyer mode. Very much a sleazebag for leaving injured kids on the lake by themselves. He probably knew he would get a dui charge if he hung around, he almost certainly won’t now and the felony charge will go away if this is his first offense.

Why are charges "possible"?
Because he is an assistant DA and south Louisiana is corrupt as Afghanistan.

I don’t know why you are getting downvoted so hard. I spend a lot of time out there, being on a boat isn’t a big deal during holidays. Sure there are a few areas I wouldn’t pull kids on a tube but to say you wouldn’t be on a boat is funny
