AndrewP posted:IIRC the guy he hit was illegally walking across a highway or something so that was probably a mitigating circumstance Was this ever proven? He very well could have been jaywalking but wasn't it just Stallworth's drunken word on that? He also claimed to have flashed his lights at the guy to warn him which seems odd.

He's hosed. There are a few places in America where DUIs get pled down but that's largely a relic of entrenched good old boy culture and the former difficulty of proving impairment. He's hosed on the evidence. DUI evidence collection has been idiot-proofed to an insane degree.They probably have a blow if they contacted him at the scene. They absolutely have his blood. Challenging a blow is difficult enough, but good loving luck with a blood draw too. He's hosed on a goodwill plea. There's no hemming and hawing about evidence and there's a legit citizen victim with a family and a city full of have somes with zero sympathy for the rich kid with the fancy car.

That’s textbook.

Challenging a blow isn’t difficult whatsoever depending on quite a few circumstances. For one, most precincts forget to update their software, and the intoxilizer (been 9 years since i handled a crim defense thing so forgive bad memory) has weird accuracy issues if you don’t update the software You’re dead on about blood though.

Leonard Little played 12 years! Manslaughter conviction After leaving a birthday party in 1998, Little crashed into and killed Susan Gutweiler in St. Louis, Missouri who was on her way to pick up her son from a concert. When tested, his blood alcohol content was 0.19 percent, 0.11 points exceeding the legal limit of 0.08 in the state of Missouri. Little received four years probation and was ordered to undergo a thousand hours of community service.

Who is going to run a car service in god knows how many cities across America and have it hardly get used. They sub contract out. Every one of these nice car services, even with the protection aspect, exists for people other than players. As for the accuracy… this was 2 years ago and the driver was driving for someone that y’all loving *hate* but was a higher $ player, going to a charity golf event held by my buddy’s grandpa. Player and driver both said it’s available via NFLPA so not sure if that means you’ve gotta be active roster to get it or?

I'm a pleb state worker in Vegas that takes a $70 Lyft to the Strip when I'm going to be drinking even though I live 20 mins away. There was a traffic safety event in Boulder City the other day to try and raise awareness about pedestrians and a truck almost killed a lady walking across the street while they were filming.

My dude intoxoilizers are three gens behind the current hand held models that get automatically plug and play tested and recertified as accurate against a known sample nightly. The machines (excuse me, instruments) are smarter than most cops and will catch and correct procedural fuckups. There's a reason the pro move a few years ago became "refuse all tests, gently caress the consequences" and even that's been countered. Most counties over 10,000 have an on-call magistrate that will authorize a blood draw at the first sign of reindeer games.

As far a I know (I am not a lawyer anymore) it is still always better in florida to refuse to blow as first refusal results in the same license suspension that a dui would. This may also be the case for second refusal but I’d have to look things up and can’t be bothered to do so right now.

Amy Pole Her posted:Holy moly. How things have changed. One state over. The problem(?) with DUI defense is that the sheer number of them forced a technical solution to spotty evidence collection and it's designed to be simple and easy for the dumbest cop to quickly and easily collect solid samples on the scene. In many states now (not sure about Nevada) you don't even need to prove impairment, you can proceed on just the number. It's led to situations where the prosecution will ask to bar all audio and video of the scene where a defendant is lucid and sober looking as irrelevant. This is probably veering into derail territory, but I tend to have sympathy for people's first DUI because how the gently caress do you know what your limits are? The most enlightening thing I ever did was do was volunteer for a cop training session where the goal is to get test subjects right on the line. I was shocked at how drunk I felt at .08 but there's no way I would have known what the line was.

They'll laugh at you for accepting the automatic suspension, then speed dial the on-call magistrate who walks them through a five minute telephonic hearing to authorize a blood draw warrant. If the dude is insistent enough about a refusal it can take less time than just doing the blow. Chef Boyardeez Nuts fucked around with this message at 20:18 on Nov 2, 2021 |

I dunno, a friend of mine was murdered by a drunk driver while on his bike. The guys first offense (he was 60?), upstanding citizen, pled no contest and gave the family (he had 2 young kids) literally all his money in the civil case. Judge gave him 9 years in jail. I know it depends a bit on situation but the days of DUI death only resulting in like 30 days of jail are largely a relic of the past.
