SECOND DUI OFFENSE REDUCED TO RECKLESS DRIVING (AUGUST 2008)
Defendant was stopped for failure to maintain a single lane. After participating in Field Sobriety Exercises, the defendant was arrested and provided breath samples of .164 and .176. As a result, defendant was charged with her second DUI. Due to issues with the video surveillance in the case, lawyers at Finebloom & Haenel filed a motion to dismiss and pressured the state attorney into reducing the charge to Reckless Driving despite the level of defendant’s breath sample. (Ref. No. 0944-XCO)
