Man shows up drunk to serve intoxication sentence

IOWA CITY, Iowa – Authorities say a 19-year-old Iowa City man showed up drunk to serve a three-day public intoxication sentence at the Johnson County Jail on Tuesday. Court records said initial tests showed the man had a blood-alcohol content of 0.101 percent when he arrived at the jail.

He now faces another charge, but a court date on the new charge hasn't been set.

Court records said the man pleaded guilty to public intoxication in May 2008 and was convicted of public intoxication second-offense last December.

So if you're counting, sports fans, that makes *THREE* intoxication charges... the original, a second, and a third for showing up drunk to serve the previous sentence.

I guess he figured that if he wasn't getting any in jail, he might as well start out with some. Don't think that's going to work out well...
