Can I have a cosmo with my handcuffs?

Hello everyone and welcome back to The Art of Ridiculous. It's been a while since I have submitted any cases for your consideration but I'm back and can't wait to see what the human race has for us next. Today's story is kind of fun in that stupid way that only human beings can accomplish. Sometimes having opposable thumbs doesn't scream top of the food chain does it?

Today's story comes to us from Irvine California where a 25 year old man gave a whole new meaning to the words "drive thru". According to the story, Matthew Van McDaniel of Los Alamitos went out with friends had a roaring good time and then with a blood alcohol level of .14 drove himself to jail...or rather into jail...

Mr. McDaniel literally drove his Mercedes through the gates of the James Musick Correctional Facility and then, just to make sure that they would let him stay, he punched the sheriff's deputy in the nose. Needless to say, the correctional system invited Mr. McDaniel to move in...for nine years. My question is did the judge sentence him for driving into the jail, punching the officer or making him laugh so hard that he tinkled in his robes....
