Look for X to be dismissed.0

I'm too lazy to try and find it, but the post I'm referring to had a screenshot of the case record. Looked legit, but I can't vouch for it of course. If it was bogus, someone really went to some effort.
But my point remains, if that info is true, then I'm good with letting him go.
His license isn't suspended.
The post showed that he hadn't payed his last ticket and that the BMV was being alerted of that, so they could take action toward suspension. They have to first notify him and then actually suspended his license in the system, which hasn't been done.
If he was driving on a suspended license, knowingly, that would have been another charge. They can't tack that on later, gotta be in the present.
You yourself admit you are "assuming" something. Hope you recognize that.
Your post is just fine as a proposed description of, well, a proposed description of something, but you weren't there and you weren't the cop that was trying to describe what he thought he was describing.
You are now in the position of interpreting a reporter's interpretation of (we hope) a careful police report that (we hope) wasn't guessing about, estimating or interpreting anything else. But we don't know. None of us should act like we do know.
i sure as hell was under no illusion that what I was talking about would hold up in court, just that there MIGHT be room to challenge the report to better plead down the charges.
also, I don’t know why you are getting bent out of shape about the old st rd 37 part, as it required the least amount of speculation of anything I said - a quick map search to verifies the name of the only place to turn around south of the bypass without going all the way down to 17th St.
I took this screenshot from a link another poster shared. It's easily verifiable.
I read he and the buddy are sticking to their story that X wasn't driving.

That doesn't say he's suspended.
That says he hasn't paid his last ticket and has been sent to the BMV for further action, but that action hasn't been taken as of when he was pulled over.
If his license was suspended, he would have been ticketed for it. They can't go back and ticket him for it after the fact, post dating it.
But I was told that IU only gives scholarships to upstanding young men.
Between this and that hut hut player who hits women, people must wonder...
Maybe not be suspended, Idk, but non-payment of a ticket is grounds for suspension, and the clerks office sent the form to the BMV. Marks point about X being above the rules is valid regardless.
Not paying a ticket is grounds for suspension? Really? We're suspending kids for their finances now? If he was driving when he was actually suspended, that's one thing, but he's not.
This one, he's in trouble for what he got pulled over for. Him not paying for his last ticket yet is you making something out of nothing.
Thanks for the clarification. He wasn't suspended.
Nevertheless, he doesn't seem to think he has to pay his speeding ticket like everyone else. That's the part I'm having trouble getting over.
I've had parking tickets that I've forgot about. It wasn't until I got a letter in the mail that I remembered I needed to pay them.
Not saying that's the case here, but tickets do get forgotten about sometimes.
I'm trying to chill and get over this entire episode, but I don't understand folks who don't get the difference between a person's behavior and what he can face legal penalty for. The gravity of what he did has nothing to do with what happens in court. Absent serious and heartfelt contrition, he doesn't deserve to wear the uniform. But I know, I'm stuck in 1983 where integrity was a thing.
The mycase entries don't ever indicate that action was taken. They usually take a little while, but not usually 4 months. It's fair to assume he was suspended.
A first offense for driving while suspended is an infraction. They often don't bother with filing tickets on criminal cases. The resisting felony carries a possible 2.5 year license suspension, so the tickets don't offer the State any useful additional punishment. There is no point in filing them, so they don't.
Parking tickets are one thing. Moving violations are another. I don't want to be a hard ass, but I'm getting the impression he thinks he's above the rules. I'm not saying he's a bad kid, but he sure does sound like he could use an attitude adjustment.
Yeah, they're gonna get him for a driving while suspended ticket and put it on his record, or else it won't show up on his mycase record in the first place.
They need that first one on record because the second one is a misdemeanor class A if he were to not complete everything he needed to do.
Plus they need it on record to get the fees that ticket would generate. No record, no money.
They don't care about getting an infraction judgment in a felony criminal case. They'd just dismiss it as part of a plea on the case anyhow. They make a lot more in fees from a year of probation than they make from a DWS ticket.
Monroe County isn't as interested in putting people on the driving while suspended hamster wheel as most counties.
I think it’s a conference rule to arrive the day before no matter what time the game is or how they are traveling there. In case of bad weather or plane/bus malfunction, I think they want a lot of time baked in so games are delayed/postponed/canceled which would screw up TV contracts
I think the most troubling thing about it is what do most of us do when we get a ticket, It's like FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF!, but you go home and pay the bill they gave you. Not doing that is a character issue, to wait months and then do it again when you didn't pay the one you knew aboutI took this screenshot from a link another poster shared. It's easily verifiable.

This might or might not be fair. But Xavier was one of the players who was suspended for the Northwestern game. Maybe he really does have a character issue. The question is does his talent outweigh his flaws? Also what effect does having him continue on the team have for the other players? All of this has to be thought out. To be honest I believe Xavier's position as point guard has something which has to be weighed in. The pg is a leader on the floor. Does Xavier really have the credibility to be a positive influence on the other teammates?
Not sure who told you that, and there was no FB player on the roster last year that "hit women" but in general and again...issues and AD response is not a qualitative or quantitative debate that purdu fans want to get into.
Hope this helps.
nope leaving the club.
Only difference between all my friends and them at the same age???? They were sober when going home.
If he was driving on a suspended license, they are gonna give him a ticket for it. They need it on his record so if he does it again, it will be eacalades later. Driving is a privilege, not a right, so having a license is something that is taken seriously by officers (my uncle is a cop, he let me know when I slipped up about my parking tickets).
He would have been ticketed for no license if he didn't have one. If Monroe County wasn't concerned with giving out tickets for no licenses, no one would ever worry about paying their tickets. See how idiotic that sounds?
IU football player arrested, accused of choking ex-girlfriend during argument

He choked the poor girl, my b.
Again, super heart warming how IU was able to look past this!!!
I literally had my license suspended twice for forgetting to pay some asinine ticket. Got suspended for a seatbelt ticket once.
You are having trouble getting over he didn't pay his ticket, where he most likely just forgot? lol are you serious????
This is exactly what I thought. If he was going in opposite direction. They might not have seen him until they were home. That’s why the resisting probably gets dropped.
Cascades. And he was likely gone before they saw the lights. Police don’t care if you saw them or not. They let the court handle it.
It’s business 37 from 69 to the bypass. Old 37 turns into lower cascades which looped back to college/walnut. That’s the OG 37.
Probably saw him in the neighborhood with lights. I’m not saying they didn’t see him at all.
Anyone watch the YouTube discussion between Jim Coyle and Bob Kravitz yesterday? They both thought that X should move on.
If he remains on the team there will be some sort of zero-tolerance provision. How did that work with RMK?
