Justice: Las Vegas Style

From The Las Vegas Sun: Dana Saunders, 34, is charged with driving under the influence with substantial bodily harm after she allegedly struck the officer's motorcycle with her 2001 Jeep Cherokee. She was arrested after the crash and booked into the Clark County Detention Center, where she is being held on $200,000 bail. http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2010/feb/05/grand-jury-indicts-woman-accused-dui-metro-motorcy/
Also from the Las Vegas Sun: Bail was set this morning at $50,000 for a 20-year-old man accused of running a red light before crashing his pickup truck into a car, killing the mother and son inside. http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2010/feb/05/bail-set-50000-crash-killed-mother-son/
Let's see, a woman who is drunk hits and injures a police officer is held in jail on a $200,000 bail. Meanwhile, a guy blows through a couple of stop lights kills a mom and her son and has bail set at $50,000. What the hell is wrong with this picture?
You gotta love the Las Vegas justice system.
