Case #: 25******4
Charge: DUI
DUI
Police say they stopped our client while driving in Key West for having no lights on. Once stopped, our client explained that it was simply a mistake as her lights are usually on "auto." She then turned on the lights to demonstrate what she said to the officers. Officers did not accept that. They went further and began speaking with our client. Officers say they observed an odor of alcohol, slurred speech, bloodshot watery eyes, and swaying "numerous times" while interacting with our client. Officers asked our client to perform field sobriety exercises and she agreed. Our client attempted to comply with officers and complete all tasks, but Officers stopped her during each exercise because our client was questioning them and frustrated as she knew she did not do anything wrong. Nevertheless, officers placed our client under arrest for DUI. She then contacted us. We immediately contacted the prosecutor assigned to the case to explain that our client was not impaired. The prosecutor initially took the same position as the police — assuming our client must be impaired and even adding that they were "open to offers" in an effort to get our client to take a plea. The prosecutor went even further and threatened to charge our client with a felony. Nevertheless, we persisted and explained not only that our client was not impaired but some of the legal issues we observed. Finally, after going back and forth with the prosecutor and ignoring their arm-twisting, the prosecutor dismissed all criminal charges.
