After being convicted for his 10th Texas DWI, a Montgomery County man has received a Double-Life sentence. He was also charged with threatening a public servant (retaliation).

Is Double-Life Sentencing a bit Much?

Depends on who you ask.

No one was killed in this case and it appears that this man needs counseling & treatment rather than a double life sentence. Also, considering the jury was only informed that he only had “more than 3 DWIs”, shows the importance of prudent jury selection in addition to the potential retribution a jury can inflict on a defendant seen as a threat to society.
