A 23-year-old City Councilman from Riverbank, California was charged with a litany of offenses after crashing his Corvette into a parked car, while drunk, with his four-year-old kid strapped into the car. Councilman Jesse James White then proceeded to leave his bleeding son in the car as he ran away, only to be “tackled and held by bystanders” until the police arrived.

After spending nearly $69,000 to remove White from office, the City Council of Riverbank gave up because it was too expensive oust him.

It’s a victory for small government.
