Daniel Robbins Is Very Weak; Partial Failure
January 29, 2009 by Morbid
Daniel Robbins Begins A New Chapter
Here is a winner for you. Daniel Robbins, 22, got into a road rage accident in 2005. He chased after a car he said had cut him off. His passenger was 16-year-old Jessica Rogers, his brother’s girlfriend. During the chase, Robbins managed to hit a pole, leaving Rogers partially paralyzed. As a result of his actions, Robbins received a whopping 180 days in jail, but was released early under the stipulation that he be placed on probation with certain conditions attached. Two of conditions being that he not drink or do anything illegal, but Robbins decided to smoke marijuana and drive illegally and on FridayFriday reviews
, Robbins got so plastered at a party that police had to be called to escort him home because someone at the residence didn’t want him there any longer.
As he stood in court to answer to these actions, Assistant Mercer County Prosecutor James Scott told Superior Court Judge Charles Delehey that Robbins “continues to show that he doesn’t (respect) the privilege that probation offers him…He continues to flaunt the law. I am asking that you sentence him to the maximum sentence of 18 months in prison.”
Judge Charles Delehey, being a kickass judge, agreed with him stating Robbins “seems to be a person who is indifferent to society’s rules. We know that prison is not a place for rehab. But … you failed to observe the terms of probation. The court can’t ignore what transpired here. The court extended an opportunity and that opportunity was wasted.” and then proceeded to give him the max. 18 months in prison.
And you know, before anyone says they think that this sentence is a bit harsh for someone who just broke probation…and has now received more time for that than had they just finished out the original sentence. Boo fuckin’ hoo, you coddling shit. To show just how deserving Robbins is of this new sentence, he stated in court that he is “emotionally disturbed, I can’t handle my own life. I don’t have a car. I destroyed my father’s last name. I feel terrible about this whole thing and I hurt every day. I’ve been taunted, assaulted. It’s not an excuse. People point their fingers at me. It’s hard for me to be a strong person. I’m very weak. I admit that.”
He then explained how he has remained unemployed because he slipped on ice and hurt his ankle. He said this while Jessica sat in court with her father. Sat in a motorized wheel chair I should add. Jessica’s father Scott Rogers, who I like, stated “I imagine it is hard to be him. Think about how hard it is to be Jessica. He doesn’t have an idea as to what hurt is. All I hear from him is ‘I, I, I.’ He hurt his ankle. Jessica can’t walk. I’m glad he got the maximum sentence.” Me too, Scott. Although had things been done my way, he would had been in prison already from the original charge.
But Jerome Ballarotto, Robbins lawyer, wants everyone to realize that everyone has Robbins all wrong. He wasn’t sending a big ‘fuck you’ message to the courts when he violated his probation stating, “It’s not like he’s thumbing his nose at the system. It’s not a total failure. It’s a partial failure.” Laugh Out Fucking Loud. Partial failure.
Know what type of people I hate more than pedophiles? Whiners. The “Woe is me” person that spends to much time bemoaning the state of their lives. Everytime I hear someone go in to just how terrible their life is, I just want to shove a pacifier in their mouths, slap them across the face and tell them to shut the fuck up. You got kids lying around with flies in their eyes, men living in tents in the woods beside I-277, people making due without sight, sound or even their arms and legs…and I’m supposed to give a shit that your husband didn’t like your goddamn pot roast? That you may not be able to pay your cable bill this month? You cant find a job, but wont apply to Wal-mart? Cry me a river so I can laugh at how funny your face looks when it scrunches up like that.
Thanks to NJLiLi and the Trentonian for the story.

my goodness, morbid, I thought you were calling me a ho. I had to re-read it.
Partial failure….god, i have to remember that one when and if I ever go to court.
10:51 am on January 29th, 2009
At first glance, the picture looks like he’s putting up his dukes to fight.
10:52 am on January 29th, 2009
I cannot decide if I am more surprised I misspelled “hoo” or that you actually read that far.
I had to update the title as well. Partial failure is just too funny. I may work that into my everyday conversations…specifically in regards to Athena’s editing duties and my attempts at humor.
11:06 am on January 29th, 2009
I’m surprised I got that far too….this article was….slightly lame….but that’s just me.
11:11 am on January 29th, 2009
Is partial failure similar to slightly pregnant?
11:25 am on January 29th, 2009
This guy is an asshat, maybe once he spends that 18 months behind bars being someone’s “special friend” he will think about walking the straight and narrow. Sounds like a spoiled whiny brat. I say we give Jessica a bat and let her go pinata on his ass!
11:44 am on January 29th, 2009
“Duties”? Must have been another one of those partially failed attempts at humor. Incidentally, “Know what type of people I hate more than pedophiles? Whiners.”
Dude… Seriously? @_@
12:00 pm on January 29th, 2009
It was the first word to come to my head that fit within the joke. I could have tried to come up with something different, or more applicable, but I just didn’t feel the extra time was worth the pay-off. Besides, it got you to comment.
While “as much as” would have probably been a better choice of words than “more”, my point still stands. Up to this point, pedophiles have not directly affected me. Whiners do on an almost daily basis. So for that reason, they rank mighty high on my list of people I would like to punch with no warning.
12:42 pm on January 29th, 2009
I would have commented anyway. This dude’s a superdouche. Look at that gold chain and the chin strap. This guy’s look screams “entitled little shit” and I, for one, am thrilled by the maximum sentence. Although, I doubt that’s long enough. It’s probably *just* long enough to give this moron the impression that he’s developed street cred.
Wannabes trump whiners on my list of people to hate.
*Sigh*… I need caffine and the safety coordinator is doing training in the break room. So fuckin’ weak.
12:45 pm on January 29th, 2009
Wannabes are on my list, but ranked lower…as at least I get a bit of amusement out of watching them.
12:51 pm on January 29th, 2009
Fair enough. See, I lived in the hood for 4 years, so wannabes posed me a great deal of trouble and annoyance. On the other hand, I’m lucky to not know many whiners. And, yeah, if the ranking is based on “personal experience with”, I guess chimos would be farther down for me, too.
12:58 pm on January 29th, 2009
I grew up in one (Plaza\Milton for you Charlotteans…7-11 and the B-Mart FTW, ya’ fuckers!), so I guess I am just used to them. But I know of no whiners on a personal nature…at least not much longer than a couple “blame everything but myself for my current situation” diatribes. But I read about them, and from them, pretty regularly. They make my blood pressure rise a bit. Like people who talk on cell phones in their car, as they drive 10 miles below the speed limit.
1:02 pm on January 29th, 2009
OMG!!!! You described my sister to a T. Do you know her too?
1:10 pm on January 29th, 2009
Or anyone who drives 10 miles below the speed limit, for that matter?
Oh, man… I was at Blockbuster last night, and there was THE MOST unfortunate kid in line with his dad. He was the nerdiest kid I’ve ever seen – short, scrawny, glasses, retainer, bad posture, the whole bit… But he was wearing baggy jeans, some oversized Sean John hoodie, and a black do-rag under his Mariners baseball cap. It was almost like a parody… only he was serous.
He was a school shooting waiting to happen, and his dad was totally oblivious.
1:14 pm on January 29th, 2009
It was worth reading the whole thing just to get to that sentence. Now THAT’S funny… Whining is definitely high on my list of the most annoying things people do.
1:21 pm on January 29th, 2009
Like I said. Pure comedy. If I were still in school, and this cat decided to shoot it up one day…he would probably put 3 or 4 extra bullets in me, as I wouldn’t be able to stop laughing. The only thing I would be thinking of is that nerdy bird Foghorn Leghorn would always try to tutor…but with a Glock. *chortle* *guffaw* *gurgle* *snarfle*
1:33 pm on January 29th, 2009
You’re a horrible person.
1:44 pm on January 29th, 2009
Probably, Dakota V.
1:48 pm on January 29th, 2009
It was intentional that you used “walk” and “straight” in the same sentence, wasn’t it? Because he is unlikely to do so, if you get your wish
2:05 pm on January 29th, 2009
Removing his jewelry before he goes to jail. And he better…someone would lift that off his sweet little ass before he laid down for day one.
Amazing that all he can think of is himself when he ruined that girl’s life forever. He can move to another state or country (after probation, of course) and go somewhere where no one knows his name or what he did. She will carry around the results from this tragedy forever, everywhere she goes. What a selfish arrogant bastard he is. No worries, he’ll be someone’s bitch in jail for sure. He’s not gonna make it guys, sure of it
2:53 pm on January 29th, 2009
well he was totally successful at hurting someone forever and getting himself into prison. Lets hope he doesn’t keep working at being successful as a criminal asshole.

” I personaly know Dan and for him to be attacked by the Rogers family blows my mind. Dan is not a bad guy. It was Jessica’s choice to get in the car. Not Dan’s. So for anyone out there to say it was his fault for causing there injuries, Is a loser who does not know what really happened. I think you all need to know the real story before judging Dan on his actions. ”
The Above is a Quote for onr of his “friends” on the Trentonian aticle.
Thi write up wasgreat Morbid. Way better than the original article.
4:33 pm on January 29th, 2009
Wow. If he was drunk, I’d partially agree with that friend of Dan’s. But it sounds like the only irresponsible choice, here, was Dan’s, in recklessly chasing after another driver. Jessica had NO choice over that…
10:34 pm on January 29th, 2009
Well, maybe if she suggested it, or egged him on. But somehow I doubt that’s how it went down.
8:29 am on January 30th, 2009
hahahaha
8:38 am on January 30th, 2009
Thats really funny too…..
2:10 pm on January 30th, 2009
Morbid? You get whiners here on DD and in the forums?
Nice write up. I had to go back and look who I was reading. I thought it was HotMom for a bit there. Same passion level I think.

I just find it amazing how people can possibly blame Jessica. Unless she developed some type powers to see the future, How in the world would she have known how he was going to drive that night! When Jessica and Melissa realized what he was doing, they begged for him to slow down. ,But no!!! as Daniel stated to court officers before his original sentencing and I quote, “kids have to drive that way to prove themselves” ! Now knowing that you are talking to court officers that forward all his statements to the judge ,why in the world would you say that;? Just goes to prove what a dumb A@@ he is. The fact that he continued to get in trouble after the crash shows that he just dosen’t give a hoot about anything. And for those of you who think it was an “accident”, remember there where witnesses who came forward. Those witnesses where the people that he decided to pass on the left, on the right and just plain disregard the rules of the road, all because he was pissed off at another driver that cut him off.These People where innocent and just trying to get home. Now what if he had hit one of those people and caused then to crash and became paralyzed. Would it be there fault just because they where in the wrong place at the wrong time?
And for the others who think this is a political stunt. You are way off base on that one. We are trying to make a terrible tragedy into something positive. By creating Jessica Rogers’ Law, we hope to deter people like Robbins from acting the way he did. To THINK before you act! Consider the consequences. So for anyone who blames Jessica for her injury, think again!!! You people are shallow. YOu have not a clue as to what my daughter has to deal with for the rest of her life because of his actions. Just in this past year we almost lost her THREE times because of complicatons of her injury. So go ahead, feel sorry for Dan Robbins but remember who the real victims where. Anything pain he is suffering, he brought on HIMSELF!!!!

The Mom,
I’m sure you’ll see that it is the defenders of this scum that point fingers at your daughter, not the regular members here.
Your daughter has my best wishes for as pleasant a life as she can manage after this dirtbag tried to kill her.
Thanks you for sharing more details about this scumbag.

Hey Mom, I would never blame your daughter. He was driving, he was supposed to be responsible. he’s an asshole and Jessica is paying because someone pissed him off. Tragic. Someone needs to drive over his face, repeatedly…….
11:58 pm on January 30th, 2009
To The Mom,.
Anyone who would defend that douche bag and blame your daughter in any way is a complete moron, and I’m so sorry you have to put up with that in addition to the heartache you’re already experienced! Anyone with half a brain should see the fault lies SOLEY with the idiot asshat driving recklessly and causing their passenger’s paralysis – NOT the injured passenger! Don’t listen to those fucktards, they’re not worth a moment of your time.
God bless you and your daughter and I’m so sorry that she crossed paths with this pathetic loser and weak TOTAL failure. May she be able to get on with her life and be safe and happy. Awesome that you are making something positive out of this tragedy!

The good news is, he could still become a US Senator!
10:31 pm on January 31st, 2009
Swoosh! That just went right over my head. Who the heck on this page feels sorry for Dan Robbins? Other than the whining man himself, that is…
Think you got something worth saying? Type it out. If you don't wanna look lame, get rid of that default avatar and go get you a gravatar! Tell 'em Morbid sent ya'. Lastly, as far as we are concerned, posting a comment means that you have read our Disclaimer.
