I doubt a minor misdemeanor traffic violation rises to the level of a probation violation, though I'd think a series of tickets could. Regardless, it's noteworthy that less than 20 days after he was sentenced and placed on probation for criminal menacing, and just 3 months after he completed his Aggression Control & Anger Management class, Sammy Catania was pulled over by the police and ticketed for aggressive driving.
See the Cleveland Municipal Court's dockets [1].
Defendant: Sammy Catania, 2406 Professor Court, Cleveland, OH.
Offense Date: 01/03/2011; Primary Street: Carnegie Ave.; Secondary Street: Lorain Ave.
Charges: 1. Max Speed/Assured Clear Dist.; 2. Driver Seat Required
Catania was flying: 51mph in a 35mph zone.
On 01/11/2011 Catania pleaded guilty to both charges and paid $226.00 in fines/costs. It doesn't say whether he received points on his license yet.
Does he have to report this incident to a probation officer? My understanding is that a criminal on probation usually has to report every incident where he comes in contact with the police.
Is the vehicle he was driving (plate # SRCRLR) his private vehicle? Who pays for the insurance? I ask because he lists TWDC as his address for this case.
