Ohio Stunter Found Guilty
 
Shawn Cripple from recklessop was found guilty and from what i heard threw the grapevine the court gave him 1-1/2 years suspended driving privilages and 1000.00 court fee. He was found gulity from some damn pics a reporter took of him this past summer and thats all it took. What do ya'll think about it? Do you think its his own fault or do you think they are just trying to make an example out of him

they are just trying to make an example

if he was wearing a helmet he should have tried to say it wasn't him

I ride with him almost everyday here in ohio and we went to daytona for biketoberfest with a couple of our team mates. In the pictures he was wearing a helmet and he did deny it in court but it didn't help. The paper that did the article testified against him which was pretty screwed up considering they were following him in my friends truck egging the whole thing on which is on tape from inside the truck. Gee can you say compicity? The bad part is how many of you would stop riding if your license got suspeded? They couldn't catch us before why do they think they can now. I dont run a plate sometimes anyway. We are working on a poker run or something to help pay his fine if anyone wants to get in on it let us know. It's a bit chilly for bikes here right now so cars and trucks may have to do. If they can do this from a few pictures in the paper which by the way none of them showed his plate think about what they could do from the videos so many of us have made? The starboyz all live here but yet they are not going after them and you can tell where they are in akron in all there video's. We all need to pay attention to what has happend in this case and try to make sure this doesn't start happening anywhere else.

THAT SUCKS. FTP ALL THE WAY. AT THE FACTORY I WORK AT THEY HAVE SUVALENCE CAMERAS AT A COUPLE DIFFERENT SPOTS AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IF THE CATCH ME DOING ANY "EXABITION RIDING" IN FRONT OF THE SHOP THAT THEY WERE GOING TO TURN ME IN. I AM ON THE ROAD AND NOT EVEN ON COMPANY PROPERTY SO I DONT SEE WHY THEY GIVE SUCH A BIG SHIT.:twofinger

hessogood 12-11-2002 08:48 AM

What did he get found guilt of?

It sucks and I fully relate. I've gotten myself into a great amount of troulbe doing shit on my bike and when it was all over and done with, the one thing that I had to face, besides all the cost and privledge loss, was that I was guilty. I can't really point my finger at anyone that was in court or whatever. Bottom line, I was guilty, and they found me guilty, had to face the music. At the same time I've gone to court for something(s) that I didn't do. 100% innocent beyond a reasonable doubt, had cops lie on the stand under oath and been found guilty of those things too. To make it even better, the cop chases me as I walk to my car after court to tell me that he lied. Some fuckin' people.

psyco650 12-11-2002 08:56 AM

I HAD A COP LIE ON THE STAND TO GET ME CONVICTED OF A WRECKLESS DRIVING. WHAT A BUNCH OF CROOKED MOTHER FUCKERS. HE STILL HASSLES ME TO THIS DAY WHEN HE SEES ME IN TOWN, I MEAN FUCK, IT HAS BEEN 5 YEARS GIVE IT UP ALREADY

HERE IS THE ARTICLE FROM THE AKRON BEACON JOURNAL
 
Stunt motorcyclist convicted on 10 reckless driving counts
Beacon Journal staff report

Stunt motorcyclist Shawn Cripple was convicted today of 10 counts of reckless driving.

Akron Municipal Judge Lynne Callahan fined Cripple $1,000 and suspended his driving privileges -- even for working purposes -- for 18 months.

She agreed to put off enforcing the sentence, pending an appeal.

Cripple, 28, of Tallmadge was convicted of three counts each of reckless operation, failure to maintain reasonable control and improper riding and one count of failure to display a license plate.

He and his friends practice what is known as ``extreme'' motorcycling. They were performing riding stunts -- such as riding backward and standing on their motorcycles -- on Akron-area roads and highways.

After a Beacon Journal story about the group this summer, a private airport owner offered them access to an airfield in Mahoning County.


COPS LIE!!!

I hear yea!! Dallas/ Ft. Worth area sub. citys have all put in place a zero tollerance policy!! Check out our video for our RIDE ON CARROLLTON....We had over 400+ Bikes doing a little drive bye protest about them closing off one of our practice spots......Well they catch you stunting in the Dallas area big ticket. If you run, the will come to your house later on and you and your bike are history......Its now a felony if you run in the State of Texas...

Stay Stoked!

DoubleRJef 12-11-2002 02:33 PM

I believe its a felony for running no matter where you are.

WheelZnorth_Jim 12-11-2002 02:56 PM

listen!!!!!!!!
 
No one ran from anyone....... A newspaper reporter asked him to ride so they could take pictures of him stunting..... the paper published the pics, and then the cops got pissed and charged him with the violations. The cops were not even there!!!! he was never pulled over, and never seen by the cops during the photo shoot!!! The charged him with these crimes simply by seeing a pic in the newspaper in which he never even took off his helmet!!!!!


what a load of garbage!!!!


:bs :bs :bs :bs

SHERMAN 12-11-2002 02:57 PM

Not sure, they just changed the law here in Jan 02 for motorcycles....oh well a ticket is better than a long jail term...

SHERMAN 12-11-2002 03:00 PM

That is BS!!!! It could have been anyone under the helmet......


FTP.....I would fight that one....get a better lawyer.....appeal that's total BS...... no clear id on that charge!!

DCMETRO1 12-11-2002 03:47 PM

thats unbelivable, thanks for posting, as stunting gets bigger more and more reporters are going to want to cash in.... riders beware!

Eric SSB 12-11-2002 04:21 PM

Well, let's give them something to write home about. Our sport is growing everyday. It's going to be very difficult to beat us down.

I was given a traffic violation for riding a wheelie and the cop didn't know what to write on the ticket, so he just put: wheelie. No reckless driving or anthing like that. Just a basic rule infraction.

Everybody have fun and be careful.

erionracingeric 12-12-2002 01:20 AM

They claimed they could identify him with his helmet on so our idea was to get ten of us or so and but on our leathers and helmet and let them pick him out just standing in front of them let alone on a moving motorcycle but the judge wouldn't allow it. It was more like a personal attack than a trial. They have wanted someone to go down for this around here for a while and they finally got it but right after it was in the paper I couldn't go anywhere around here without seeing someone even people on bikes I have never seen before tearing shit up on the highways. So did it stop anything? No not at all. All It did was glorify the thing they wanted to stop. Well I cant wait for spring because it's gonna be nasty up here. Oh by the way anyone coming to akron next summer dont forget the best part. All the highways around here interloop and you can run around the city nonstop without ever having to jump off the highway so I have actually never seen a successful police chase of anyone on a bike. I just cant wait for the starboyz stuntfest so we can all tear shit up. Later Eric:apimp

what
 
if the cop did not see it how could he give u a ticket????? isnt that entrapment on tha papers part?????sue them---fuk it!!!! and if your gonna do sum shopping(if you use your bike for that) then take it easy ---if your gonna fuk around then off with the plate and wear a helmet and leave if the oinkers cum---always have a escape route ---and a plan if a getto bird comes out---and keep stuntin cause if all of us and more keep doin it they will have to change laws---either way fuk the police--and authority were not hurtin anyone its our body our time our money!!!!! b anti social

freddyspens 12-12-2002 04:14 AM

son of a biscuit.......
 
sorry to hear about the bullshit...i hope he can find a(some) good lawyer(s) and stuff it back up theirs. i think pretty much ALL cops and such are liars... i know of(for a fact) 2cops(FROM WOODSTOCK,NY) that gave a buddy of mine like 13tickets when he never even left his house...it got dropped in the end but the one cop testified on the stand at trial that they "saw mr benson in the car" when in fact it was me!!!!! i look nothing like mr benson and how could they tell at 4:30am going opposite directions??? i think they were just mad cause i smoked them in a 1983 ford escort!!!! they just recognized the car(they never even came close to me) and ,since they had busted my friend for shit one time, figured they had an easy bust....uggghhhh!!!-scumbags
FTP is right!
