Decision disgusting - Rita Barnes

This letter is concerning an article in Friday's April 28 edition: Drunk driver to spend weekends in jail. I am disgusted he only received a 90-day jail sentence to be served on weekends after his fifth conviction on impaired driving.

This letter is concerning an article in Friday's April 28 edition: Drunk driver to spend weekends in jail.

I am disgusted he only received a 90-day jail sentence to be served on weekends after his fifth conviction on impaired driving. For the judge to only slap his hand because he is sole supporter for his family, is appalling. What about all those families who lost their sole supporter at the hand of a drunk driver? This man should be put in a rehab centre at the least to serve his full 90-day sentence, and still I'm being too kind.
