It was Milwaukee originally (the Kia boys) although it probably spread to the west coast. I agree they probably should’ve spent the $200 on an immobilizer. In fact even that amount to add it seems a little high but it’s the number that’s be

The 85% number gets repeated around here a lot, but isn’t the full story for fed time. (Not that I’d expect software engineers to be experts on prison nuances) Just off the top of my head RDAP will get him 1 year off (he for sure qualifies)
