  Speaker 3: pumps over here, there were several crashes and multiple times
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: where his BAC was double the legal limit. He never
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: appeared to rain behind bars for very long. He was

  Speaker 3: News about Shaler Township's arrest of Bill Ballantyne in their
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: own parking lot is dumbfounding residents. It was Ballantyne's 10th arrest.
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: In the report, officers said Ballantyne told them he was
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: having fun. He said he only had two drinks, which
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: may or may not have included the beer cans in
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: his car, and then told them, I was just having
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: a good time today. I'm going to prison. He's facing
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: a felony charge. Court records show Ballantyne's arrest follow a
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: familiar pattern. He'll stay in jail until he reaches a
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: plea deal, then accepts the lowest possible penalty, usually a
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: year in jail with a hefty amount of credit for
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: time served.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: This man's last name was Ballantyne. OK, he was destined
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: to be a drunk.
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: All right.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: Brian allegedly drove his SUV. to the shaler township police
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: department nearly hit another vehicle while pulling into the parking
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: lot got out of his truck and proceeded to take
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: a piss right there in the police department parking lot
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: 50 steps away from uh the police station look at
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: god okay god knew what this man needed god gave
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: him what he wanted all right you've been arrested for
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: dui 10 10 times you have eight previous convictions for
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: driving with a suspended license and god led you right
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: to where you have been fighting to be. Okay. Oh, Brian,
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: you've been working hard at ending up in one place
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: and that place is jail. Okay. You're the type to
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: rob a bank, Brian, and then go to the police
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: department to ask if they can break a hundred. Okay.
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: You're the type to be on the FBI's most wanted
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: list and go to the Jagger Hoover building to charge
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: your phone. OK, this man didn't get pulled over by
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: the police. He actually pulled up on the police. You
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: can't tell me God is not real. OK, Lord knows
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: the last thing anybody needed was this man driving around drunk.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: So God put him right where he needed to be. OK, listen,
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: everybody makes mistakes. You get arrested for DUI once. That's
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: a serious mistake. All right. You get arrested twice. Clearly,
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: you didn't learn your lesson. But nine convictions, nine convictions. OK,
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: nine is the highest level of change. A cat only
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: got nine lives. OK, at what point do we stop
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: calling something a mistake and acknowledge that somebody is a
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: danger to themselves and everybody else on the road? OK,
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: Brian clearly has a drinking problem. OK, alcohol dependency is
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: absolutely part of this conversation. But guess what? Getting treatment
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: is a choice. Okay, he's a grown-ass man, okay? Adults
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: are responsible for their choices, and this man's choices are
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: putting innocent people at risk. Now, you heard the news report.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: When police questioned Ryan about his previous DUIs, he said
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: something that stood out to me, okay? He said, I
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: never meant to hurt nobody, all right? Nobody who gets
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: behind the wheel drunk plans to kill somebody. People don't
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: leave the bar saying, you know what? Tonight... I'm going
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: to destroy somebody's family, okay? They think they're good. They
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: think nothing bad is going to happen until something bad happens.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: And that's what makes drunk driving so dangerous. Your bad
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: decision can become somebody else's tragedy, okay? You might wake
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: up the next morning with a hangover. but somebody else
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: might not wake up at all. So when Brian says
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: he never meant to hurt anybody, I believe him. But Brian,
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: not wanting to hurt somebody doesn't mean you're not putting
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: them in a position to get hurt, especially when you've
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: already been convicted nine times. Please give Ryan Valentine the
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: sweet sounds of the Hamiltons.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Oh, now you are the donkey of the day. You
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: are the donkey of the day. Yee-haw.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: He looked like he can't wait to do it again
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: just look okay i have questions for the justice system
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: too like what were the sentences for the previous convictions
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: right someone's at some point you got to get some
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: hard time all right was he ordered into any treatment
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: okay i want to know how much time did he
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: actually serve what's the longest he served what was being
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: done to keep him from doing this again inquiring minds
