Standard on DWI is community service + 2 years probation. Wonder if they will add to the 5 existing or run concurrently. And I cannot image where he will do his service!

This is the same guy who was arrested in 2000 in Forest Park for Lewd and Lascivious behavior at an outdoor restroom there. In case you are not familiar with that crime: The legal term "Lewd & Lascivious" is connected to a crime which occurs when an adult has sexual contact with an underage child. Either this bozo has the worst luck surrounding public restrooms, or he is a sexual predator....and apparently a drinking problem...DWI??? How many strikes does this terribly dressed creep get?
