Charge: OUI-First Offense
Result: NOT GUILTY
Massachusetts State Police arrested this client for Operating under the Influence of Alcohol. This was a Mother coming from a St. Patrick’s Day celebration. She consumed a responsible amount of alcohol and was upset regarding some family matters as she was speeding. She pulled her vehicle over close the travel lane, but she was driving a large unfamiliar truck.
After being stopped, she was cooperative with the Trooper. The Trooper observed that she had difficulty producing the Registration, but the vehicle was not hers. The Trooper noted an odor of alcohol, that her eyes were glassy/red/bloodshot and that she had slurred thick tongued speech.
The trooper asked her to exit the truck and she did so without any balance issues. The Trooper requested her to perform FIELD SOBRIETY TESTS and she refused to take them. She was placed under arrest and refused to take the breath test at the State Police Barracks. Her license to operate a motor vehicle was reinstated after the finding of Not Guilty.
NOTE: Refusal to take FIELD SOBRIETY TESTS and the BREATH TEST are not admissible in Court.
