Did candy lightner the founder of madd get sentenced to prison for DUI?

No Candy has not ever received ANY citation for DUI! While she is not a favorite person of mine, I do have great respect for her. I was friends with her survivng twin daughter for many years. There was always "breaking news" regarding both Candy and Serena. Once I was sleeping over and we were awoken to news that Serena had been killed by a drunk driver. She was sitting right beside me, alive and well. I will never understand why people have to throw stones at good people. With so many horrific things, true things going on, I have to wonder who is either that bored or that sad that they are fabricating stories. Candy Lightner left MADD and is concerned that the organization that she herself created is changing its focus. "It has become far more neo-prohibitionist than I ever wanted or envisioned," she says. "I didn't start MADD to deal with alcohol. I started MADD to deal with the issue of drunk driving." Lightner emphasized the importance of distinguishing between drinking alcohol on one hand and drunk driving on the other.


Can a police officer get a key and enter your apartment while your sleeping?

In general, a police officer would need a warrant to enter your apartment while you are sleeping, unless there is an emergency situation like hearing someone in distress inside. It's important to know your rights and ask to see the warrant if an officer wants to enter your home.


If person was drunk and fell down steps outside of apartment complex can they sue?

It is possible for a person who fell down steps outside an apartment complex while drunk to sue for negligence, but the outcome of the lawsuit would depend on various factors, such as whether the property owner had a duty of care, if there were any hazards on the steps, and if the person's drunkenness contributed to the fall. It's best to consult with a legal professional for specific advice.


What does the constitutional prohibition against ex post facto laws mean?

An ex post facto law is one that prohibits that which was formerly legal, and reaches back in time to punish that which was already done back when it was legal. It also includes retroactively increasing the punishment for past crimes. The US constitution, Art 1, sec 9, prohibits such laws. However, there is a great deal of legal controversy over whether a legal provision "punishes" the past act, and whether it is doing so retroactively. For example, suppose a state prohibits drunk driving as a misdemeanor, and you are convicted of it twice. Then the state passes a law making a third drunk driving offense a felony. Then you get caught drunk driving again. The state can punish you as a third drunk driver because the only thing that is being punished is your third act of drunk driving while having two priors, and your third act occurred after the law was passed. In Kansas v Hendrick, 521 US 346 (1997), Hendricks was convicted of a sex offense in 1984 and sentenced. While in prison in 1994, Kansas passed a law for civil commitment of "sexually violent predators." After Hendricks served his criminal sentence, he was locked up anyway (though this time in a state hospital), with his acts leading to conviction and other past acts being the basis for a finding that he continued to be dangerous to the public, allowing his continued incarceration. The US Supreme Court, by a 5-4 vote, ruled that this "civil commitment" was not "punishment" and therefore allowed it to happen. This ruling, in the eyes of many commentators, has gutted the ex post facto protection enshrined in the constitution.
