Former Local Coach In Trouble


KFDM COOP

Man, I can't believe that. Coach Gamble took Deweyville to thier first two Bi-district play-off games back in 80 and 82. He was much younger back then, I think only in second or third year of coaching, and although I was only in the seventh grade, I remember him as a real tough guy and would work you to death in the weight room, and on the field.He went on to coach @ Little Cypress (where I think he got into some trouble) and then had a long spell @ Alto, and took them to several state championships.

Well I hope he gets out of that jam.

Why? Being a "coach" does not make you exempt from laws. Nor should being an athelete, politician or celebrity. Wrong is still wrong.

Wrong is wrong. Getting out of a jam doesn't mean he beat the rap however. Maybe ndn09 wants him to get out of a jam because he is innocent.

"The assistant coach was arrested by Marlin police at gun point, for driving under the influence and possession of a deadly weapon."

That don't sound innocent to me.

Obviously the District Attorney wants you on the permanent jury list. If the cops arrested him, he is guilty.

Not to mention the fact that there is no such crime in Texas as "Possession of a Deadly Weapon" as reported in the news article. I guess if you don't know the answer, you just make it up.

DUI is scientifically measured. You don't "make it up". Drunk AND packin' heat is a BAAAAD combo, don't you think? I think the criminal defense lawyers want you permanently...

Well, if I had mentioned DUI then your response might make some sense. I said there was no such law in Texas as Possession of a Deadly Weapon. I will overlook that fact that there is no DUI in Texas either but assume that the reporter meant DWI. Like I said, if the reporters don't know the answer, they will make it up.

I could care less if the guy goes to jail for life. If he did the crime, he can do the time. Anyone that sees a report in the media and believes that the reports is all facts in the case is likely mistaken.

Obviously news release are not always accurate. Gamble was arrested for DWI, not DUI. Driving under the influence is only for minors, not adults. He apparently has a history of family violence and hopefully will get the help he needs this time. I am not putting blame on him because there is always more to the story than we see.

    • Virginia has same day voter registration. A person can literally walk in to the voting location, register and then vote. So the premise that Virginia might be stopping people with a legitimate right to vote is nonsense. From what I gather in the news report, assuming that the ones I have read are correct, the people that were removed, filled out a drivers license registration and marked that they were not an American citizen. Could the person have made a mistake bychecking the box incorrectly? Although unlikely it is certainly possible. That same person who was removed can go into the same voting location where he would have voted and again, complete a voter registration and then vote.  That went into the Supreme Court’s decision.  If such a person votes by registering on election day, he fills out a provisional ballot. Provisional ballots are not originally counted and or not counted unless needed. For example….  Statewide there are 500 provisional ballots cast. A person wins the election by 4,000 votes. That would be no need to count the provisional ballots as it will not matter. Then let’s say there are 5,000 provisional ballots cast in the election. One candidate then wins the election by only 1,500 votes. In that case, the election could definitely swing on those provisional ballots. The state will then investigate each person to make sure they live at the correct address listed and that they are American citizens. If these things are correct, the vote will then be counted. Safe Harbor is not untillll…… I think December 17th this year so there will be six weeks to verify the provisional ballots if needed. The purging of the names of people who checked a state form saying that they were not an American citizen, will not stop that same person from voting.
