A Texas court session took a serious turn as Judge addressed a defendant, Mr. Major, facing consequences for a DUI and recent cocaine use. The judge emphasized the gravity of his situation, questioning why he would risk his job and freedom for a drug that could lead him back to jail.

During the hearing, Mr. Major, a 35-year-old ticket agent at Delta Airlines, admitted to using cocaine despite knowing the potential repercussions. The judge expressed concern over his escalating addiction, stating, "Your addiction is accelerating into something that you have lost control of." She mandated that he attend one Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA) meeting per week and report his attendance to probation, highlighting the importance of accountability in his recovery process.

The judge made it clear that Mr. Major's previous leniency would not continue, stating, "If you have another mess up, then we don’t... it’s going to be a different conversation." She also ruled out non-reporting probation, insisting on regular check-ins due to his recent drug use.

As the session concluded, the judge urged Mr. Major to take his second chance seriously, warning him that failure to comply with probation requirements could lead to immediate re-arrest. The court scheduled his next appointment for April 24, 2025, reinforcing the need for him to seek help and make significant changes in his life.
