It might be different if Judge Disanto hadn't heard the same whining story a million and six times. It's like they have a script that they give to each other. Here,use this when you violate probation.

Amazing how they all want to be there for their kids when they are in front of the judge but don't seen to think about it when they are not following probation. How do they not realize probation IS their second chance? SMH

[@stoneysdead689]

Addicts are extremely good at rationalizing use- threats of being jailed rarely work. The addict will convince themselves they can find a way to get away with it- and if nothing else, they'll just use and then face the consequences. They almost can't help it- consequences have to be very immediate and real to them - or they don't respond to them. Someone like this- you need to lock him up for at least 30 days- then he'll respond to the threat of jail because it's real and immediate. I was the same way- I knew I was going to go to jail if I didn't stop using, but I kept right on until they locked me up. I don't have children, but a lot of my clients do- I'm a counselor now, I've been clean over 15 years- even threats of taking ppl's kids don't work- until you do it. Then you get results- the problem is, this is traumatic on the kids. They need stability and can't be used like a game piece to checkmate an addict. Addicts know this, they know we're very hesitant to disturb a child's living situation because whatever you do needs to be at least semi-permanent- for the kid's sake. Also- I had some experience with the foster care system and local orphanages growing up- I am loath to put a child into that mess. Things have to be truly bad for me to send a case on up to social services.

[@dot9000]

I love when they think it's 'let's make a deal' when they get caught.

[@Gfysimpletons]

Uh, I’d say 90% of cases are a Let’s Make a Deal scenario… I’ve seen countless dui videos where they get lesser charges Also, carjacking, burglary etc, etc…….

[@Grigsy]

@@Gfysimpletons This is a probation violation hearing. It's "let's make a deal time" when you are first charged with a offense. When you are on probation, you are already convicted, so you are at their mercy.

[@patscats2080]

He’s working on his alcoholism problem by not getting sober, not doing what the court ordered, then worried about everything had done wrong…then he’d have another drink. Yup. That’s exactly it. Judge, make it hurt then maybe he’ll quit.

[@apatheticaesthetic.]

Thatssssss not how that works.. like… at all. You can’t get clean.. until YOU- T R U L Y- want it. Other than that.. it’s not going to work. &: you’ve got to seriously work the steps. The big book and heroin anonymous SAVED my life. We use the A.A big book in heroin anonymous, because why fix what ain’t broken. It’s saved the lives of millions since it was written in 1939. I keep a small big book in my bag everywhere I go. It’ll be 6 years on April 17th. I never thought I’d have any semblance of a normal life in any capacity.. if I didn’t want it, though.. I wouldn’t have even a day of sobriety.. &; I’d probably honestly.. be in a coffin right now. I’ve had drug court and that never worked. I’ve been to jail and dreamed of the day I’d get out to get high again. I almost lost my hand to an infection on my 26th birthday. You have to want to do it. Or it won’t happen. You have to want to save your life. Nothing else.. and no one else.. can do it for you. That sucks.. but thems the breaks..&; I know 23 kids in their 20’s who passed from addiction.. before they got that feeling and got to that point of wanting it and wanting to fight for their lives.. That could’ve been my story- EASILY. I just happened to get lucky. I’m sorry, but your statement is beyond ignorant. Clearly; addiction isn’t part of your story. &; I’m happy for you that it’s not. No one wants this shit. Educate yourself.

[@patscats2080]

@@apatheticaesthetic. well I’m very very happy you are clean, sober and in recovery. You’re right, most people don’t make it. And you’re right that a person has to want it, more than they want anything. But I am in recovery, and for a long time, not heroin-alcohol-. That wasn’t what I meant when I wrote that. I was “talking” to him. But in reality I’m saying that he needs consequences. I didn’t want to quit as long as I could tolerate the consequences. There was a time, I’m very grateful, where I didn’t want those consequences. When I got into recovery I didn’t think it would work for me. But it has, everyday. But it’s work, like you say. A lot of commitment but every minute is worth it. Next time I will be clearer and no more snark. Again, thank you for telling me. I’m so happy you’ve got 6 years. That makes me very happy. It does work when we work it.

"I've been seeking substance abuse therapy on my own" is NOT the same as "I'm fixing my substance abuse on my own." In fact, quite the opposite. Seeking therapy is seeking help *from others*. Your on-screen comment indicated confusion or misunderstanding on this point.

He received no penalty for lying. In fact she still gave him a break by running the sentences concurrently. If he didn't try the million to one shot hoping that she wouldn't check the police report, then he would be in the exact same place he is now.

If that's the case (as in, assuming he wasn't lying), I don't see the problem with that. People are flawed and he makes terrible choices, but that would imply that he loves his kids and is trying to correct at least one mistake. Definitely needs to work on his substance abuse issues first, though.
