The Defendant ran a stop sign and swerved into the left lane. Then the vehicle began to straddle the right divider line and accelerate while swerving back and forth violently 3 times and traveled 70 mph in a 35 mph zone. After being stopped the defendant had an odor of alcohol on his breath and admitted to drinking 4 drinks in the last 7 hours. He was unsteady on his feet stumbling and swaying the entire time. He consented to roadsides where he performed poorly. After being arrested, he was brought to the jail where he refused to provide a sample of his breath. The Firm pointed out inconsistencies with the video evidence and the reports and convinced the State of Florida to drop the charges for Driving Under the Influence on the day before the trial.
