Drunk at hearing, man gets year

http://www.omaha.com/article/20100316/NEWS97/703169855#drunk-at-hearing-man-gets-year

Published Tuesday March 16, 2010

A 30-year-old Bellevue man who showed up too drunk last week for his drunken-driving sentencing has been given a year in prison.

Judge Jeffrey Funke of Sarpy County District Court said Tuesday that Jason Botos was a danger to society and should be behind bars. It was Botos' second DUI conviction.

Last Thursday, Botos arrived at the Papillion courthouse so drunk that he couldn't attend the scheduled sentencing. Botos had pleaded guilty to misdemeanor drunken driving in a September 2009 collision with five other vehicles.

Deputies arrested Botos in the parking lot on a warrant from the judge, who on Tuesday gave Botos 90 days more in county jail for missing his sentencing on Thursday.

1. Good, it sounds like he could use a year in prison.
