HAVING BEEN HIT BY A DRUNK DRIVER,I REQUEST YOUR SUPPORT!!!!
More than a year ago our sister Janet Hogan was on her bike, struck in the rear by a car whose driver then fled the scene. Janet suffered multiple and severe injuries. The Culprit Douglas Clay was driving drunk, fled the scene, was arrested for DUI, , gave police a false address, and disappeared again.
He has been convicted twice before for DUI. He was arrested in LA and returned to San Diego.
Clay has now pled Guilty to Felony DUI with Injuries, Fleeing the scene, driving on a suspended license, and 3rd DUI with circumstances. He is scheduled to be sentenced on May 25th 2010.
His lawyer is already trying to get the charges reduced. Janet needs as many people as possible to write a letter to the judge urging the judge to impose the most severe penalty possible on the Defendant. I have placed a sample letter at the bottom of this message. Please mail your letter to Janet Hogan at 3950 60th Street, apartment 143, San Diego CA 92115. She will bundle all of the letters together and send them to the court. For all of you whose schedule permits, we would like a section of motorcyclists in that courtroom on May 25th to show our support of Janet Hogan.

To the Presiding Judge Your name and address
Department 31
Your Honor,
Douglas Clay plead Guilty to driving drunk, crashing into Janet Hogan causing severe injury which she will probably never fully recover from, and fleeing the scene. He has been convicted twice before for DUI, and shows no indication of changing his lifestyle. I am asking you to impose the most severe sentence possible to this man to punish him for what he did to motorcyclist Janet Hogan. Please keep this repeat offender who shows no regard for other people, and who disregards his responsibilities off the streets so that he does not kill someone in his next crash.
Thank you,
