Mel Gibson's drunk driving conviction expunged

money money the rich are above the law

I guess CA has a law where 1st time offenders can get their record expunged if they follow all the steps set forth to them.

The law has it's pros and cons. On one hand it's good that someone (any one)who makes a bonehead mistake has a chance to correct it without it destoying their entire life. But on the other hand you sit there and say they did the crime and they should have to pay... to me this is true with DUI.

I guess as long as it's a law for everyone to take advantage of we can't really criticize Gibson for using it.

I'd like to take a moment to thank God, Jack Daniels, and my Yid Lawyer.

Did anybody expect anything less? Hollywood protects their own whether they be racist's or pedophiles. The way to fight this type of bullstuff is to close your wallet and show them your back.

Ya can't expunge the public's memory.

No, but most will forget about it on their own.

It's amazing what money can do.

Someone should explain to Mr. Gibson that anyone can still go to the courthouse with his name and birth date to see his criminal record. In addition, the rest of the public should be aware that if you are ever fingerprinted for a job or a visa to leave the country, the Department of Justice will still disclose your record. The conviction and the arrest record is never erased, sealed, or destroyed, but a notation is simply added to the record showing that the conviction has been dismissed pursuant to the California Penal Code Section 1203.4. The Church of My Faith in God has established the Expungement Reform Movement to propose a resolution that would permit people who have had or those who wish to have expungements or pardons the ability to petition the court to have an arrest and conviction record resulting in an expungement or pardon sealed after five years from the date of their expungement or pardon and destroyed three years after the sealing of an expungement or pardon.

Reliable sources report that Mel Gibson has reached an agreement in principle to sign on with the Harlem Globetrotters as a point guard perhaps as soon as early November.
Terms of the contract have not been disclosed.

its not fair
reminds me Paris Hilton who spent only a few days in jail (Lee Bacca got her out)

Keep up the good work Mel and remember that when you have the shakes, use both hands to gulp down your drink.
