The reader's response to the ghost bike article was intriguing. It *is* saddening when drivers aren't prosecuted for killing cyclists/pedestrians, but the reader therefore does not want to hear about it.

But I thought only certain charges where dropped? The last I heard, the attacking an officer charges were the only dropped. Did I miss something??

Max, I think you're correct.

So, should it be assumed that he has been released from custody?

I wonder how he meets his transportation needs at this point.

I don't know if he's been released from custody.
