Gee, maybe he was texting his girlfriend, or another Trooper. I think it is only illegal to text while'Driving', not standing around. And if this lawyer was as big an ass to the second trooper as he was to the first one, I'm surprised he let him go!
Oh, and let's not forget that there will be a record of this trooper's text message. Just like there was a video disproving the lawyer's story!
I also agree that everything should be done to get these troopers back on the road for the holiday weekend.
Govenor Perdue needs to Make that Happen!The public's safety should be her Prority in this case!!!
