Edinburg man gets sixth DWI in 2 years after crashing into school bus

[TexasTowelie]

An Edinburg man was charged with driving while intoxicated after he crashed his car into the back of a school bus Monday morning.

Alexander Correa, 23, was arraigned Monday by Municipal Court Judge Toribio “Terry” Palacios, who set his bond at $50,000. This is Correa’s sixth DWI charge in less than two years. He has four open DWI cases and one dismissed case, according to court records.

Palacios also ordered Correa to get a Secure Continuous Remote Alcohol Monitoring Bracelet after making bond, police spokesman Lt. Oscar Treviño said.

The SCRAM bracelet is much like an ankle bracelet but takes alcohol readings every 30 minutes.

1. Why did they bond him out after the 3rd

This make no sense. He would be sitting in jail in my county and not had a chance to hit the school bus.

2. Four open DWIs and he's not already on remand without bail?
