began when he still had his learner's permit.
He was stopped a day before his 19th
birthday. From there, he descended into a
seemingly endless cycle of traic stops,
fines, court appearances, late fees,
revocations and reinstatements in various
jurisdictions.

Coordinated coup eorts by the Turkish

military in Istanbul and capital city Ankara
late Friday failed. According to the
government, hundreds died during the
attempt, including dozens of civilians.
