Sturgis, South Dakota. On December 1, 2009, Marguerite Engle, 45, was found in a parked truck next to Interstate 90. The truck had been reported stolen and quickly got the attention of law enforcement. Engle was arrested and then provided an astounding breath alcohol sample of .708. That is nearly NINE TIMES the South Dakota DUI legal limit of .08. Such a high level is life threatening and it really is a miracle she is still alive. While prosecuting DUI cases for Seattle the record BAC sample was just over .500. That individual spent a few nights at Haborview Medical Center before he was allowed booking into jail.... Read more

Some law enforcement agencies in Washington State utilize the Finger Dexterity field sobriety test during a DUI investigation. The Finger Dexterity test is not recognized as a Standard Field Sobriety Test by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, and in my experience this sobriety test is complete garbage.

Gainesville, Florida. Florida Gator coach Urban Meyer lifts Carlos Dunlap’s suspension just in time for the Sugar Bowl. Dunlap was suspended from the team for his DUI arrest. After the stomping Florida received from Alabama in the SEC Championship it is not stunning they want all able bodies on the field for the Sugar Bowl. Also, it is a Florida football program. Is anyone really shocked they give such light sanctions to players that break the law? Florida schools have consistently looked in the other direction or doled out the lamest of punishments when their players go thug or stupid. Yes, Dunlap went very stupid the night he was arrested. He was so hammered he passed out in the middle of an intersection while the car was running and in gear. Just another privileged athlete getting another athlete DUI and no one really cares because they are lights out on the field of play.... Read more
