The Defendant was driving on the Interstate when a citizen called 911 for a possible drunk driver. The 911 caller stated the Defendant’s car was weaving and changing speeds for no reason and almost caused two accidents, then almost ran off the road numerous times finally losing control and crashing. When the Deputies arrived on scene they stated that the Defendant appeared dazed and had droopy, glassy eyes. The Defendant was given a series of Field Sobriety Exercises in which the Deputies stated were performed poorly. The Deputies arrested the Defendant and took him to jail. At the jail the Defendant provided a breath test and a urine test. The urine test was positive for a variety of drugs. AnneMarie Rizzo immediately began investigating the case and preparing her client’s defense. She told the Prosecutor the Deputy didn’t follow proper procedures and there was a lot of evidence in her client’s favor. AnneMarie set the case for trial and the Prosecutor reduced the DUI charge to Reckless Driving.
