Good grief, yes, of course he was out. I'm talking about a Class B misdemeanor DWI, punishable by a maximum of 180 days in jail.

Taking into account 2 for 1 good time, if he'd been in jail this whole time it would be 8 times the maximum sentence.

Also, under Chapter 17, he would have been entitled to bond a long time ago.
