Contacting the Judge on State Representative Driver's sentence

State Representative Joe Driver is getting hammered in the media for stealing $64,000 from the taxpayers and getting only 5 years deferred adjudication. If you think that is a light sentence (and it is) write to the Judge who will decide if the sentence is adequate. She does not have to accept the recommendation of the Travis County District Attorney, which is extremely lenient. Besides the proposed sentence:

• Driver has to pay his campaign the $64,000 he stole and he could use it to pay off his attorney.
• He keeps his $57,000/year pension
• He keeps his tax funded health care for life
• He does not have to resign.
• After 5 years his record is wiped clean

So send a quick email with your thoughts to the Judge at the email address below:
