Child Endangerment Charge for Sambora?

Things just went from bad to worse for Richie Sambora. The Laguna Beach Police Department has requested two misdemeanor counts against Sambora--one for driving under the influence and one for child endangerment.

Sambora was popped for a DUI on March 25 after cops noticed him driving "erratically." His daughter Ava was in the car with him at the time, which was a big NO NO!

"Assuming Sambora was driving with over a .08 blood-alcohol level with a passenger under 14 in the car, he's looking at probable jail time," says veteran DUI lawyer Lawrence Taylor, who's not involved with the case. "But it's possible this can be plea bargained to a lesser offense, and/or he could get rehab in lieu of jail."

Sambora is scheduled to appear in court on May 7. He'll probably be ordered back in rehab, we hear third time is the charm.

I have seen much worse cases where a child of 7 was a victim of 2 felony crimes that caused his death and the authorities ignored those crimes and concluded that 7 yr old ,"Tyler James", "CAUSED HIS OWN DEATH". to read about this mockery of Justice please visit, www.tylerjames.org thru yahoo search engine
