On a third DWI in
Texas, it can be raised up to a felony. That is how he ended up in my
court, but not on the third DWI. He had had many DWIs. It was not
brought to the DA's attention, because we had a terrific DA, but it
just wasn't brought to his attention that this guy already had so many
DWIs. The immigration authorities hadn't done anything, until, finally, he
was driving drunk, hit another car, and did serious injury to people in
the car. They were very loving, caring people. But he was clearly an
alcoholic.
