Dr Thompson should rot in the slammer until his trial takes place... and for many, many years afterward. General populatiom, not some country club sentence, either. two years or two weeks, it makes no difference, really.

Assault with a deadly weapon is a serious charge and very appropriate but attempted murder may have also been warranted. Hey at least they actually charged him!

Americans were granted the right to a speedy trial so they wouldn't be left to rot indefinitely in jail without their case being heard. Now the accused waives his right and loiters around on bail indefinitely while the victims of crimes (all crimes, not just Dr. Thompson's) get to linger without resolution. Two years for a trial date is obscene. They say justice delayed is justice denied.

Mob justice actually seems like it might have been a better answer than leaving the fate of the Mad Doctor of Mandeville Canyon up to the courts. I never thought I'd feel that way, but two years for this guy to frolic and continue driving on Mandeville Canyon Road is ... well, it's an injustice. Wow.
