This Texas man has learned his fate.
Christopher Faran Stamford, 50, was given a life sentence in prison after receiving his ninth DWI charge — claiming he was “unlucky” rather than irresponsible for repeatedly driving under the influence.
The reckless driver pleaded guilty to the felony charge and was handed the life sentence by a Parker County jury, according to the Fort-Worth Star Telegram.
Stamford reportedly opted for the jury to decide to his fate.
“His record showed that he was going to continue endangering communities throughout the Metroplex unless he was locked up,” Parker County DA Jeff Swain said in a press release.
