Reckless Driving (Speed) > 2years + $20K. After fighting for quite a while the N.C. lawyer who was fighting the speeding charge has finally entered an Alford plea because of his poor health and (I'm certain) a realization of how dumb it is to spend $20K fighting a charge like this. My question is how much taxpayer money was wasted making sure this guy was convicted and if it was worth it. They must not have real criminals in Botetourt County if they can put as much effort as it would take to counter that kind of effort in order to convict somebody of something this trivial.
