DISMISSED | DUI (Arrowhead Justice Court No. 02-08356CR): Mr. M. was stopped for traveling 96 mph on the freeway. Upon contact by the officer, he admitted to having some drinks, and told the officer he had “lower back problems.” He did not perform well on the Field Sobriety Tests, and was above the legal limit on his preliminary breath test (PBT). We were able to show that the officer changed the time on the traffic complaint regarding the traffic stop in order to move Mr. M’.s breath test to within 2 hours of the stop. Based on this and Mr. M.’s low blood alcohol reading, and we were able to convince the State to dismiss the DUI charges.
