Case Details:
On June 19, 2011 police were dispatched near motorist/defendant’s home on the report of a possibly intoxicated driver operating a vehicle with two children inside. The police officers were told by dispatch that they received a call from the defendant’s ex-wife indicating that he left a barbecue after drinking all afternoon. The ex-wife further indicated she spoke to her ex on the phone advising him not to drive, but he refused her plea and said he was driving the kids home. The officers stopped the defendant’s vehicle and observed him drinking a Heineken beer in the car along with his two children. The officers claimed the defendant failed both field sobriety tests given at the scene. They further claimed the defendant urinated on himself at the precinct.
