On Peter Schorsch and Ron Book's DUI Arrest

Alcoholics don't need enablers excusing their bad behavior. But here is Florida's premier bought-and-sold political writer acting as Ron Book's enabler.

Ron Book has to EARN his rights back. But Ron says some people should NEVER get their rights back. Well, Ron should not earn his right to drive back.

On Ron Book’s DUI arrest
There but for the grace of God go I.

About the breaking Ron Book story.

We don’t know much.

We do know that one of the state’s premier lobbyists — Florida Politics just reported that his was the top-earning governmental affairs firm during the 4th quarter of 2018 — was involved in an auto accident last night.

We know he refused to take a DUI test.

We know someone else was involved in the accident.

We know he was arrested and charged by Florida Highway Patrol officers.

We know car accidents can make people act as if they are out of their minds.

And we know that he is on medication to treat his cancer.

These things we know for sure.

We also know that those who love to hate will hate. They will spread and relish in misinformation and gossip. Some will even take a measure of glee.

But let’s hope the better angels of our nature — those angels who believe in forgiveness — compassion and understanding get the upper hand.

There but for the grace of God go I.

We all make mistakes. We all have bad days – some of us even have really bad ones. Today, one of the biggest names in The Process is having such a day.

I cannot speak for anyone but myself, but today I offer Ron Book — and anyone else involved — my thoughts and my prayers.

    Philip Day A vigilante has been convicted on Arson and harassment allegations

    Philip Day "waged a crusade" against the University of Chester Academy Northwich (UCAN) in Cheshire, stalking teachers and claiming on social media it was a "playground for paedophiles".

    Six years after he made sex abuse claims, Day torched the school's roof.

    Day, 55, of Runcorn, was found guilty of two counts of arson.

    He was also convicted of two counts of stalking at Chester Crown Court.

    The school was set alight in February 2018 when Day climbed on to the roof and removed tiles so he could pour petrol inside, causing £2.4m worth of damage.

    Cheshire Police said no evidence was found to corroborate Day's claims.

    After his arrest, police in Essex questioned and charged Day in connection with a December 2017 fire at a house in Saffron Walden belonging to a man involved in a sex abuse case in which he believed there had been a miscarriage of justice.

    Day was found guilty of one count of arson being reckless as to whether life was endangered, one count of arson and two counts of stalking members of staff at the school.

    He was remanded in custody to be sentenced on 12 April.

    Cheshire Police said a psychiatrist in December 2011 passed reports to the force that a child known to Day had been abused on 2010 ski trip organised by UCAN, then known as Rudheath High School.

    No complaint was made and police were unable to substantiate the claims, despite Day repeating the allegations in 2013.

    In July 2017, Day was cleared of making threats to kill the teacher alleged to have been involved in the abuse, and filmed himself outside Chester Crown Court complaining he was the victim of a conspiracy.

    Day subsequently began a campaign of stalking which focused on the teacher and headteacher before turning up at school events to warn parents not to send their children to the school.

    Richard Adams under investigation for vigilante attack

    A hearing was continued for the 20-year-old Painesville man facing an assault charge after being accused of fighting with a 17-year-old Eastlake boy after he walked in on the teen allegedly molesting a 5-year-old.

    The pretrial hearing scheduled for April 2 is now scheduled for April 16 in Willoughby Municipal Court.

    Richard L. Adams is facing second-degree felony felonious assault stemming from the March 21 incident.

    Adams has received support online, including GoFundMe account set up by his uncle to help pay for legal costs which has now raised more than $40,500. More than 1,600 people have donated to the account.

    Pretrial hearing held for Eastlake teen accused of raping 5-year-old
    He is now represented by attorney Richard J. Perez, who declined commenting on the ongoing case to gathered reporters at the municipal court April 2.

    Jeff Cook, Adams’ uncle, wrote in an update on the GoFundMe page that Adams plans on doing something “very nice” for the 5-year-old victim. Cook added that Adams is also looking into a non-profit to donate to for abused children.

    The 17-year-old is currently detained in the Lake County Juvenile Detention Center. He is facing two counts of first-degree felony rape and two counts of third-degree felony gross sexual imposition.


    The Lake County Prosecutor’s Office is seeking to have the 17-year-old tried as an adult. Following an April 9 probable cause hearing, an amenability hearing will be scheduled.

    Lake County Juvenile Court Magistrate Christopher P. Tucci explained to the suspect at a March 28 hearing that prior to the amenability hearing, the court will order an investigation into his social history, education, family situation, and a mental examination will be conducted.

    If it is determined that the 17-year-old is not amenable to the juvenile court system, his case will be bound over to the adult court.
