Matthis: Vacation or jail?

So Matthis is trying to make up his mind whether he should fulfill his obligations or totally blow off jail in favor of a Caribbean vacation in regards to his arrest in Highland Falls during the President’s speech there. Guess which way he’s leaning;

I called the District Attorney’s Office this morning, but they said the responsibility for Matthis and his community service will fall to the probation department, who won’t have responsibility until the disposition of the case has been determined.

I hope someone in Orange County, New York is listening so they can hold the local justice officials’ feet to the fire on this. It seems to me that if Matthis leaves the country while under jurisdiction of the case, he could be in serious trouble – federal pound-you-in-the-ass-prison kind of trouble. Sure would hate to see that happen.
