Jessie’s car had been impounded and the MVD notified of the DUI charge. ‘I then get this message that my license is being suspended and I have to take some sort of drinking class or something,’ said Thornton. According to the police documents, Thornton was later released to his wife. Thornton now claims this wasn’t DUI. ‘It was driving while black,’ said Thornton.”
