MADD Canada would not let a Winnipeg man convicted of a serious drunk 
driving charge donate money prior to his sentencing hearing.

(ok i can understand that)
Court heard MADD rejected 26-year-old Daniel Tooth's one thousand dollar 
gift. Tooth recently pleaded guilty to a charge of drunk driving causing 
bodily harm and has now been sentenced to 10 months of house arrest plus a 
year probation.

(so now he has been sentenced so why not accept the money now)

MADD Winnipeg Chapter President Rod Sudbury stresses they will not accept a 
donation on the backs of someone injured or killed. He says a number of 
convicted drunk drivers try to give money in an attempt to get a more 
lenient sentence from the court.

(Does anyone else find it rather odd that the manitoba MADD president is a 
MAN. After all it isn't the group called MOTHERS against drunk driving)

CJOB's Jeff Keele reporting.
