Judge Says Man with 18 DUI's Must
Live Near Bar
|
|
Omn Saturday, January 3, 1998 in Hillsboro, Ohio, a man
with 18 D.U.I.'s was sentenced to live within walking distance of a liquor
store or bar to try to keep hi from driving under the influence of alcohol.
"It's my hope that he'l walk to get his beer and wine rather than
drive," Judge James Hapner said. "Whether it will work or
not, I don't know." Dennis Cayse,50, has been charged with
DUI at least 24 times since 1971, and has been to prison twice.
Ohio also has revoked his license. Cayse can ony ride
as a passenger in a vehicle."He doesn't deny that he is an alcoholic," Hapner
said."He just doesn't see that as a problem."
Judge John Hapner doens't care if drunk drivers drink
themselves to death. Hapner just wants the man with 18 D.U.I.'s to stop
endangering other peoples lives, and get off the road. So the Hillsboro
Municipal Court judge ordered the drunk to move within walking distance
of the bar by Jan. 31,1998.
In an order signed Wednesday, Hapner gave Cayse a suspended
1 1/2- year jail sentence and placed him on probation for five years. Dennis
Cayse is a dangerous man on the streets after he come back from the bar.
A first conviction is no laughing matter. It typically involves loss of
one's drivers license for 6 months, a 250 dollar fine, and 50 hours of
community service.

Son Attempts to Clear Dr. Sam Sheppard's
Reputation
|
|
Sam Sheppard spent 10 years in jail for killing his wife,
and his son, and now Sam Reese Sheppard is now suing because he claims
his father didn't do it, and he wants compensation of the time his father
spent in jail. Sheppard has gone to every high court in the state of Ohio
to get his case presented. If Sam Sheppard's son, Sam Reese Sheppard wins,
he could get up to two million dollars. Prosecutors have asked Ohio's high
court to throw out the case.
Sam Sheppard claimed that a bushy haired intruder knocked
him out and killed
his wife in their home in suburban Cleveland.
Marilyn Sheppard, Sam Sheppard's
|
pregnant wife from Oakland,California, died 43 years
ago after being beaten to death in her bead. Her death was blamed on her
husband in 1954 by a jury in Cuyahoga County in northern Ohio. Sam Reese
Sheppard was only seven years old when his mother died. He was a young
adult when his father died of liver disease in 1970 at age 46.
Sam Reese Sheppard and his legal team hope that DNA and
other evidence will prove that Richard Eberling killed his mother. Eberling
was a window washer for the family. Right now Richard Eberling is serving
a life sentence for killing another woman. Eberling denies killing Marilyn
|
Sheppard.
No good sample of Sheppard's DNA has been available
until now. Earlier DNA tests done by doctors indicated a second persons
blood in the Sheppard's home.
Doctors took 50 samples from Sheppard's body to be genetically
tested. For that purpose Sheppard's body wes exhumed early Wednesday morning.
His son brought 27 daisies to his father's exhumation to place on his casket,
one for every year his father had been
|
dead. When the casket was revealed he put most of the
flowers on it and some in teh empty grave. The body was driven to Cleveland
where the casket was opened. Witnesses said the body was well preserved,
recognizable, and fully clothed. Doctors took samples of bone from Sheppard's
skull, arm, leg, and from his hair and skin. After they took the samples
Sheppard's body was cremated for his son.
