This obviously sounds ridiculous, but jealousy is a motherfucker and if you don't think the underpaid rookie cops working the 3am shift would make an example or take out their frustrations on the super rich guy that they wouldn't do to another guy that's similar to them in age/status, then I don't even know what to say.
The article i read about the arrest says he failed multiple field sobriety tests and was pulled over for driving slowly, swerving, and stopping in the middle of the road.
He also says it was due to knee surgery, which basically means he admitted to driving poorly and not being able to walk a straight line.
This guy is a tool.
Maybe they let someone else off with a warning but it's also unfair to blame the police for doing their job. Assuming Isray was impaired - while he may have a small point its overshadowed by that he didn't admit he shouldn't of been driving. I never understand why people who can afford to have multiple 24/7 drivers are driving messed up...
