It's time to put Tanya Buccolo in prison for the next 10 years before she hurts someone.
She's not to be trusted.
Lock her away!

The paper would be too heavy to carry!!!! But it is a great idea - a separate newspaper "the Criminal" with pictures of everyone arrested town by town accompanited by their mug shots. I LOVE IT!!!

Being Italian has nothing to do with it. She's another ignorant person who thinks that nothing will happen to her if she drives drunk. But she is right, nothing ever happens to the drunk, its either their passengers they kill or some innocent family enjoying their day and minding their own business.

[Helllllllloooooo o]

who says she's Italian any way she could have married into that name- The only think thjis dumb beatch is is stupid. she obviuosly needs to learn a lesson and where is CPS take her children away NOW and since they posted her address send a letter to the local schools the mothers in her neighborhood would love to know this Money be damned

You have to feel bad for the 8 year old. He was probably scared to death, not his fault.

people with drinking problems are not losers. They are sick - Alcoholism is a disease just like cancer is. You are ignorant. I am not defending what she did by far

What a bunch of rat finks!

"Oh, officer, someone crossed the double yellow lines!"
Mind your own darn business you tattletales!

Man, this could have ended so badly.

I'm glad they got her before there was a tragedy. The RO and the prior convictions clearly mean nothing.

Maybe a year in a lock-down psychiatric facility to treat her clear delusions about drinking and driving might help.

Please don't compare alcoholism or drug addiction to cancer. No one makes a choice to get cancer (except those fools who smoke). Everyone makes a choice to start drinking or taking drugs. Maybe they become addicted but they made a consious choice to have their first drink. Addiction is the sign a weak mind.

[You are all disease]

Stupid law for stupid people.

You'd think she gassed a whole population given the headlines. I just love newsday sensationalism.

DWI/DUI laws are a waste of time. Despite the punishment people keep doing it, everyday. We all know the odds of be caught are slim at best.

[Hey dopey]

Isn't it supposed to be "Innocent until proven guilty"?

Didn't realize that an arrest means guilty now.

THnak the beany boys and their lawyer sons and daugthers.

They have isolated a gene in alocoholics which may lead to the disease, and yes, it is a disease. As a disease it is not something people ask for. Too bad it is easy to judge.

Hey Debbie, I think you're on to something!

[John C]

A gene may pre-dispose you to becoming addicted but they still make a choice.

Calling it a disease is just an easy way of passing off blame to someone but themselves. Maybe if people took responsibility for their own actions we wouldn't have as many drunks and drug addicts in the world.

Alcohol and drugs are excuses for those who cannot cope in the real world.

[seeyaalright]

Some people have addictive tendencies. They abuse or overindulge in anything they do.
It's still against the law and endangers others. The penal system doesn't treat law breakers as it is currently set up. Punishment is what it serves for and she should be punished as says the law.
Keep your disease harnessed at home.

They are losers when they get behind the wheel and involve innocents in their actions...if someone wants to sit around being a drunk - without driving - then they are just sick...
