Okay, then that's what we're going to find. >> Well, I still get a DWI out of that. >> You're you're under arrest for right now. >> I'm not I'm los for this or what? >> So, this is one that's >> my job. >> I know. So, we The blood doesn't come back for like 2 3 months. So, everything stays as is for 3 months. Then you can take it to court. You can fight it in court. You can do whatever. But that's the process that goes. >> How long will it take for you to release me? I can't drive my car out of here. >> Absolutely not. I just arrested you for a DWI. I'm not going to make a graduation. >> No, we're not making a graduation tonight. So, that's where we're at now. And we try to make this as fast and smooth as possible. >> Broken. >> I know. So, >> the trooper initiated a traffic stop based on a caller's report of erratic driving despite observing only minor issues like a cracked windshield and jerky movements without crossing lines. Minnesota statute 169.14 requires reasonable, articulable suspicion of a violation before stopping a vehicle. The driver explained his route from Alexandria to Brainard for his daughter's graduation. Yet, the officer dismissed his coherent responses and focused on glossy eyes and watery appearance as signs of impairment, ignoring his prescription, Aderall taken at 6:00 a.m. This escalated into field sobriety tests despite the driver's denial of alcohol or illegal drugs and his clean preliminary breath test showing zeros. >> Hello. >> How are you? >> I'm good. How are you? >> Figured I'd come in this way cuz I didn't want to be on the road. >> Oh, okay. >> Okay. I'm just going to go talk to my partner up here. You good? >> Yeah, I'm good. Everything you just hang tight. I just see his deal is very >> Yep. So I don't know if they did you have your proof of insurance. >> Yep. Would you like to see? >> Yes, please. >> Yeah.

I drive a semi dump truck. >> Gotcha. >> Does God work? >> What were you doing while driving? Were you on your phone or something like I got hands free. >> Well, you were called in for being all over the road. >> Yeah, that don't make no sense to me at all. >> Okay. There's no reason that you would have been >> all over the road or wasn't ever all over the road. Somebody must be Josh and it must be a prank or something. I don't know. >> I don't know about that. >> Yeah, I haven't been all over the road and had no issues. So, >> okay. Are you taking any prescription medications? >> Uh, I take Adderall. >> What when's the last time we took Adderall? >> Uh, 6:00 this morning. >> How many milligrams is that? >> Uh, 30. >> 30. Okay. Once a day, six. >> How about anything else? >> No. >> Um, any illegal controlled substance uses that we use? >> How about alcohol? >> No. >> Okay. So, I'm a drug recognition evaluator and there's a couple concerning things. >> Okay. >> Um, I'm going to run you through a few tests. Your eyes are glossy, watery, your driving conducts being called in. I'm going to run you through some tests and make sure you're good to go. Okay. >> Any questions with that? >> No. >> If you want to, you can shut your car off. >> Oh, I'm not late for my daughter's graduation. What time is that at? >> It's 7:00. >> Okay. >> Definitely not. >> I still got to change into some clean clothes. >> You don't want to wear that? >> No. >> Okay. Hands up. Do you wear any knives or anything? >> No. >> Okay. I just quick cuz sometimes that's totally fine. People forget that they have pocket knives, especially if they do construction.

So, do you have to drive to Is it in Alec or that's just where the job is? >> That's where the I park right out of Alexander every day. >> Every day. How long of a drive is that? >> Uh from Elbow Lake. >> Okay. I'm going to have you stand in front of my grill here. Face your car. >> Any recent brain injuries? >> No. >> Concussions? >> No. >> Tumors? >> No. >> That you know? Any lower body injuries that prevent you from walking or? >> No. >> I won't have you doing any cartwheels, so you'll be okay. >> Blind in either eye? >> No. Do you wear contacts? >> No. Okay. >> Just a couple questions I ask. Have you done field sobriety before? >> Yeah. >> Okay. So, I may do stuff very similar, but I also might do it a little different from in the past. I'll explain everything. >> Okay. >> So, you won't be guessing. If you have questions, just ask. Okay. First thing I do is I just take a pulse. So, you just relax right here. I'm going to get my little stopwatch up. There you go. Just relax there. That's just the aderall that you take. No, >> daily. >> Vitamin C is totally fine. Um, what am I going to say? What I was going to say? So, next test. So, feet completely together. >> Toes touching, arms by your side. >> What I'm going to tell you to and when you I tell you to, you're going to tilt your head back and you're going to close your eyes. All right. >> While you do that, you're going to estimate the passage of 30 seconds. >> Okay. >> In your head, however you do it, >> when you believe 30 seconds has passed, >> you're going to tilt your head up down just like you are now and open your eyes and say stop. >> Okay. >> Any questions about that? >> Might be that close to be that. >> They have to be touching if you can. >> Any reason that they would have to be apart? >> Oh, it just kind of feels a little weird. >> Yeah, cuz we don't usually stand like that. But for this test, yes, you'll stand like that. Any questions? No. >> So, I tell you when to start and you're going to tell me when to stop. >> Okay. Eyes open, closed, >> eyes closed. >> Okay, sounds good. >> Yep. So, I'll tell you when to start. I'll make sure nobody is coming. >> Okay, you can begin. 30. >> How'd you get there? >> Wait, how'd you get to 30? >> Did you count? Did you just guess? Did you you I just asked >> count it in your head. >> Count my head. Was I close? >> You're close. Okay. >> You'd be surprised with the answers, I guess. >> So, you're a little taller than I am. So, I'm going to have you have a seat on this chair. Well, I shouldn't say chair, but it'll be your chair for this. >> What I'm going to do >> is you're going to follow the tip of my finger. Your eyes and your eyes only. Be going side to side. Try not to move your head side to side with it. >> Just keep your head exactly straight on. And we're just moving our eyes. >> Okay. >> Any questions with that? >> Nope. >> And you said you're not blind in either eye. No stigmat. >> I got those two. Makes my contacts more expensive. >> See my finger? >> Yeah. >> Okay. Heat up here. Okay, relax your eyes. This next one's also an eye test. >> What I do is I make two big circles around your face. You're going to still follow the finger the whole time. >> And I'm going to come close into your nose. I won't touch you, but it'll get close. Your eyes will cross. Do you have any issues crossing your eyes that you know of? >> No. >> Have you ever tried to cross your eyes? You're younger or anything? >> Yeah. >> But you could were always able to cross your eyes. >> Pretty much. Yeah. Yep. Okay. So, what I'm going to do is just make those two circles. Come in close. Won't touch you. You just track the finger all the way in. >> Okay. >> Any questions? >> Try my best. >> Okay. See my finger? >> No. >> There you go. >> One more time. Okay. Let your eyes relax. Not seeing cross eye anymore. >> You do. Okay. >> Your eyes were able to cross. >> Thank you. >> Yeah. Some people just Some people just can't cross their eyes. >> Um, next test you can have it stand up is going to be a walk and turn test. Okay. >> So, where you're at right now is perfect. Where your left foot's at, you can take a step off that little whip. There you go. Where your left foot's at, put your right foot in front of that. Okay? >> And stand like that till I tell you to start the test, keeping your arms by your side. And I'll show you exactly what I'm going to be having you do. Okay? So, what you're going to do is a series of nine heel to toe steps forward, turn around, and do nine back. And I'll show you exactly what you're looking for. Okay? 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9. Once you get to that ninth step, you keep that last one planted. Take a series of small steps, pivoting on that last one. Nine back. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9. Once you start the test, don't stop until we finish. Turning the way I did, hitting that heel to toe and keeping your arms by your side. Good. >> Any questions? >> No. >> Okay, you can begin whenever. >> Go ahead. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 up 9. Okay, face your car. So, this one's a one leg stand test and I'll have you take a step off. We'll go on this even pavement cuz the other one's a little bit uneven. So this >> shoes are so bouncy. You can't make me >> Those are good shoes. Those are expensive work shoes. >> They're good for your body. >> $75. >> Yeah, they're not cheap anymore. That's a good brand. >> Yeah, thank you. >> So what you're going to do is you're going to raise either your right or left, whichever one's easier. Some people have a more dominant leg. You're going to raise it approximately 6 in off the ground, just like mine is. Completely flat, >> arms by your side, >> looking at the tip of your toe with your eyes, pounding out loud. 1,00 1,002 1,003 1,004 and so on until I tell you to stop. >> Okay? >> While you're doing it, try not to sway, try not to hop, and keep those arms by your side. >> Okay? >> Any questions? >> No. >> Okay. And whichever foot you decide, that's fine. You just start whenever, and I'll tell you when to stop. >> Okay? >> Okay. >> 1,00 >> little higher. So, it'll be about 6 in off the ground. Pointing that toe straight. >> There you go. Point that toe straight. Keep that level like mine. See how it's flat? There you go. >> 1 100 2 100 Look at that. 3 1 4 100 5 100 6 100 7 100 8 100 9 100 11 100 1 13 100 14 100 1500 Sorry. >> Okay. Nope. You're okay. No need to apologize.

Mine are pretty soft. >> Yeah, these here got such a big pad on them. I feel like I'm standing on a ball. >> Do you want to try it with taking your shoes off? >> I think I did get enough. >> Okay, it's not an ask. Some people want to go barefoot. >> I feel pretty confident I passed a sobriety test. >> Mosquitoes are coming out. Anything alcohol wise today? >> No. >> Over the last 24 hours? Anything in your mouth? >> No. >> Stick your tongue out. So, I get lied to every day. So, we'll just knock that PBT out. How's that sound? >> Sound good? >> The officer conducted multiple tests, including Romberg, horizontal gaze, nestagmas, walk and turn, and one leg stand, noting fidgeting, and elevated pulse, but admitting the driver performed adequately. Overall, field sobriety tests must be administered in accordance with National Highway Traffic Safety Administration standards to be valid indicators of impairment. Despite the driver passing the breath test and explaining his long work hours causing fatigue, the officer fixated on stimulant signs beyond prescribed dosage, using the half pill in his bottle as evidence of misuse while ignoring his diabetes and metformin. The tests were framed to build a case with the officer later admitting on body cam that the driver passed a sobriety test, yet proceeded to arrest water that had it in it. Oh, >> when's the last time we used math? July 7th on 2020. >> 2020. >> How often did we use it in the past? Pretty often. >> Oh, when I lose my insurance for all. >> Oh, gotcha. Blow blow blow blow blow. >> There you go. >> Oh, no. zeros. You were telling the truth. You'd be surprised and all of a sudden it's like, "Oh, okay. Wasn't very honest." When you lose your insurance for aderall. >> I lost my insurance. >> How long ago? >> Oh, this is years ago. I've been I'm going on. Are you on probation or anything? >> No. No. No. >> Um, when's the last time we used meth? >> July 7th, 2020. >> No, I haven't used that since I was in high school. >> How do we take our aderall? >> Uh, orally, I have my chair. If you like to see it, >> do you have it? Yes. I'd like to see it. >> No weapons that are in there. Just since we're going back to our car. Grab my backpack. Is that okay? >> That's absolutely fine. Yep. Just I'm going to ask you again. No drugs or >> anything in there? I get drug test. I got class A. I drive commercial vehicles only. >> Okay. >> So, you take this how often? >> Uh, once a day. >> Once a day. Only do you get prescribed? 30. What day is today? >> The 31st. >> So, how come we have a tab and a half? >> Uh, brag cuz on the weekend I felt like taking a half tab, so I have a whole one. >> Did we just take a half tab today? Tonight? >> Uh, not tonight. No, I haven't had one since this morning. >> Okay. So, >> I got to work again tomorrow morning. I don't I only take them in the morning. So, >> Oh, okay. My metformin. >> What's the >> Oh, yeah. I forgot to tell you. I'm on metformin, too. >> What's that one for? >> Diabetes. >> Oh, okay. >> So, we're supposed to take it every day. >> Yeah. It's >> And this was prescribed in April 17th, right? >> No. >> So, do we not take it every day? >> Sometimes on the weekends. I just think I have one. I don't have work, so I >> Okay. >> Weekends I kind of relax and just veg out. So, I've had that over just chill. I don't I don't need to be so focused on the weekend. [laughter] >> Yeah. >> So, that's been that's been filled over a month and a half ago. And >> Yeah, I see that. >> I still got one and a half left. So, >> I saw that. >> Can we stay out of our pockets, though? Um >> you're about to lose your mirror. >> Yeah, dear. Um, how did we use the meth in the past besides just that one or that drink in it? Did we smoke it or snort it or shoot it? >> No, no, I don't. >> No needles. >> I've never >> How did we use it in the past? >> Snort it? >> You snort it? Do you have any Do you have your septum? Looks >> Have you ever looked in somebody's nose after they sort I haven't snorted anything in four years? Okay. Just about. So, >> just smoked it then? No, I haven't smoked in 3 and 1 half since July 7th of 2020. >> Okay. >> So >> So you're showing a lot of signs of stimulant use beyond a prescribed dosage. So I don't know if you took it at 6:00 a.m., right? >> Yeah. >> And took 30 millig. >> You're way too stimmed out right now for that. >> So when's the last time we actually took our pill? >> 6:00 in the morning. >> Okay. So what else would we have that's making you stim? >> Nothing. I don't have no caffeine, no pop. I drink bottles of water. Uh, last time I had encounters with the cops, they were at the wrong room. They tased me six uh six cops tased me 12 times. And >> you don't fight with cops, do you? >> No. No. >> Just that once? >> I didn't fight with them that time either. >> Well, if you got tased 12 times, [clears throat] that wasn't very cooperative. >> No, I was dazed down and got tased 12 times and got in a coma. So, >> how long ago was that? >> Uh, a few years ago. >> Okay. So, >> I get nerves around a little bit, you know, and I can get that, but I >> I was the wrong person. Wrong broom, wrong everything. But I've never given you a reason to be nervous, right? >> Well, you are. Now you're telling me I'm more stimulated and I just pass a sobriety test and >> you're making just now you're getting agitated, which makes me a little nervous. >> Am I getting arrested for DWI or are we going in or whatever? Are >> you going to be cooperative? >> Yes, ma'am. >> Yes, you are under arrest. >> Yes, you're a cooperation. It means large. Okay. >> Um I am going to stack it so it's a little bit more comfortable. >> So I'm here for my daughter's graduation. >> Okay. We'll try to make this fast. Okay. >> What do we do? Go take a dirt test. >> Yes, sir. >> Oh, thank God. I didn't make it by seven. Oh, I pass. >> Okay. But the thing is, >> yes. >> Do you have somebody that can come get you? Cuz if I'm arresting you for a DWI? >> Oh, I'll pass you drug test. >> No, sir. So, what's going to happen, and I'll explain it to you, is we have to go in for a BCA drug test, which I don't get the results for today. >> So, I'll be overnight. >> Can you just listen for one second? >> Are you going to be cooperative the entire time? Just can I grab my wallet? Can you give me my wallet? >> I'll grab I'll grab all your wallet and stuff. Um >> I can't call my daughter. I'm not going to make it to graduation. Oh my god. >> Try to relax here. Okay. Can you face your car for me? >> Do you want the cash left in the car or do you want to take it with you? >> Take it with me. >> Okay. >> What about >> We are in Little Falls. >> Why do you think I'm over stimulated? I don't understand. Yeah. So, I'm a drug recognition evaluator and you're showing signs, numerous signs of >> like what? >> Like >> I took you my prescription. I >> You wanted that with you, right? >> Yes, please. >> Okay. Come on back with me. >> I'd like to call my mom or somebody. >> Well, I'll grab your phone. I will. Okay. Come on back. Come on back. >> Am I going to be in jail for it? >> We'll see. Typically, yes, you would be, but we're going to drugs. I'm going to pass every drug case you got. I have zero drugs in ahead. >> No, no, no, no, no. >> Okay. I see. Do you want to bring your sunglasses with or you want me to leave them in the car? >> I don't know. >> Yeah. Try to relax. I'm going to turn some air on for you. Okay. Upon inspecting the aderall bottle filled April 17th with one and a half pills left for a 30-day supply, the officer accused the driver of not taking it as prescribed, equating it to illegal stimulant abuse. Minnesota statute 152.025 criminalizes controlled substance possession only if not pursuant to a valid prescription. The driver insisted he took 30 mg orally at 6:00 a.m. and sometimes have doses on weekends, but the officer claimed he was way too stimmed out for that timeline. disregarding his class A CDL drug testing and clean history since 2020 meth use. This scrutiny ignored medical context like diabetes potentially affecting pulse and eyes, turning legitimate medication into probable cause for arrest. [music] >> Yes, sir. >> What's that? >> Go to my daughter's graduation. There's been no drugs. >> So, even you can still get a DWI off of a prescription medication. Okay, you're showing signs of impairment caused by the prescriptions. Even if it's not a prescription, it's a stimulant of some kind. What I am going to do for you, cuz you're late, you're not going to make it in time. Do you want to call somebody to let them know? I can't let you know. We have to do this process. I'll try to get you going as soon as we can. I can't My hands are tied. >> Graduation. >> I know. Please. >> So, I'm just going to We're going to get going and we're going to get I've done no drinks, please. >> So, I'm I can't We're under arrest for DWI, but do you want to call somebody quick to let them know you won't make it in time? Do you want to do that or do you want to wait? >> Yes. Call someone. >> Okay. What's your >> What's your pen? >> Well, do you want your hands or can you go off to the >> Am I going to be in jail overnight all weekend or what? I got to work from work at 6:00 a.m. >> How when's your Okay, I'm going to ask you a question, but first I'm going to read you something. Right. You're under arrest. You have the right to rem silent. [clears throat] Anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law. You have a right to an attorney and have an attorney present during questioning. If you cannot afford attorney, one will be appointed to you with little to no cost. Do you understand those rights? >> Yes. >> So now I'm going to ask you questions. I'm going to explain everything. So at least then if you answer a question, I read you that when was your last DWI? Was it within 10 years? >> 2019. >> 19. It is 24 now. >> Okay. So we're within 10. So, it would be a thirdderee DWI. [laughter] You're still not required to see a judge. Okay. So, I'm not going to make you sit all night. But can somebody come get you at 7:00 in the morning to get you to work? Well, you can't drive cuz I'm arresting you for being impaired while driving. >> I promise you I'm not impaired. >> We're impaired by prescription medication. >> I'm not I'm not impaired. I drove a semi all day. >> Okay. But I'm just telling you what you're under arrest for and what I see are the signs of impairment. You >> I ran out of bioic yesterday. My blood sugar is probably high. >> Okay. So even that's not going to cause what I'm seeing. But I did bring your I think you have insulin, >> right? >> Or you have something? >> No. >> What what was in that little thing with a finger prick and it looked like a blood sugar testing and it looked like one thing of >> was that osmpic or was that insulin? >> Probably was empty. Yeah, I was blood my last my uh I get my prescription filled on Monday. >> Okay. And we can have the hospital check your blood as well. >> You're not going to find nothing in my system. I did my roll and you're not going to find a high level of it. You're going to find it within normal range. >> Okay. Then that's what we're going to find. >> I still get DWI out of that. >> You're you're under arrest right now. >> I'm lose my CDL for this or what? >> So this is one getting my job. >> I know. So we the blood doesn't come back for like 2 3 months. So everything stays as is for 3 months. Then you can take it to court. You can fight it in court. You can do whatever. But that's the process that goes. >> How long will it take for you to release me? I can't drive my car out of here. >> Absolutely not. I just arrested you for a DWI. >> I'm not going to make a graduation. >> No, we're not making a graduation tonight. So that's where we're at now. And we try to make this as fast and smooth as possible. >> I know. So move in. Okay. >> So he didn't want to give me or he didn't want to do the passcode for his phone, which also tells me >> the driver was handcuffed and arrested for DWI despite zero alcohol and passing key tests with the officer citing numerous signs of stimulant use while promising to make this fast, yet ensuring he missed his daughter's validictorian graduation. An arrest requires probable cause that a crime has been committed. Per the Fourth Amendment and Minnesota rule of criminal procedure 4.02, the officer exploited the driver's distress over missing the 7 PM event and work at 6:00 a.m. offering phone calls but denying release to a ride, forcing overnight jail despite cooperation. Mood swings from frustration were labeled impairment, amplifying the power imbalance as the driver begged, "I'm missing my daughter's graduation." Officers searched the vehicle without consent. Post arrest, finding jars of rocks, cash, and insulin, speculating on meth or overdose while documenting the aderall is not taken daily. Incident to a lawful arrest. A search of the vehicle is permissible under Minnesota statute 1698.50, but must be reasonable in scope. They retained the prescription and diabetes kit unnecessarily, joking about the driver's size and passing incident to justify caution. Despite his full cooperation, the toe was called prematurely and items like clothes for graduation were grabbed but released denied, extending control beyond necessity. >> Which hand? >> This little bit, right? >> Uh, this one. >> This one right here. >> Okay. >> Oh, you're going to have to step out for me. You can turn like normal and then just step out. >> Yeah. So, it's resting on it. So, I'll turn it. Do you want me to try to cuff you a different way? >> Can I just have to front? >> No. It is really uncomfortable. >> Are you going to fight me if I move it in the front? >> No. I promise you no fight whatsoever. >> Okay. >> Cuz I get the frustration and I get all that. But >> you better forget. >> That's not true. I [clears throat] know that's not true. >> That's not true. Okay. So, I'm going to lock it so it doesn't get any tighter than that. Okay. How's the spacing? >> I promise you. >> Have a seat in there. Okay. Is that better? >> Yes. Thank you. You're welcome. >> I have a bottle of water in my backpack. Can I get that by chance? >> Yeah, I'll grab it. But we can't have it until after we do the blood. >> Just cuz I like we said, we've already drank meth before. So, I'm going to make sure. >> Is there any way we can hurry it up? Cuz maybe I can hitch I can make it there in time. >> We'll try to figure some out. Just hang tight. >> So, he's got mood swings. He'll start crying. Stop crying. Sweaty. NEED A WATER BOTTLE. YOU CAN HAVE THAT AFTER. OKAY. And typically you'd go to jail for the night. >> Well, we'll see. You >> like it? >> No. >> What don't you like? Work. >> You don't like it? >> No. >> I feel like 6:00 to 9 every day. >> Wait. What company is it for? >> 15 hour days. >> I've never heard of that company. No, no, >> probably. >> Yeah, >> that's all that matters. And it's only a half an hour drive to work. That's not bad. Do you get to take the truck home or do you have to go pick it up from a shop? >> Oh, okay. Supposed unless you own the truck, they probably don't want people taking it home. Are you ready or left-handed? >> Right. Okay. So, yep. You'll just take a pen. You're going to initial on that line, the subject initial. And then there's the second one, too. Just initial. Thank you. Thank you. >> That was very nice of them. They don't have to do that. popping two pockets. Not really worry about things. >> Did you buy the car from Florida or why do you have Florida blades? >> Oh, is Florida one of the states where you can take it to and from? >> Florida. Okay. Some states you can take it with you like transfer it on a different car. Minnesota you can. got the place cuz he told me to save him from the good boy to his dad. >> Oh, did you know the guy? >> No. >> No. >> Hi. Hello. >> Thank you. >> Cuz you haven't had any insulin today, right? >> No. This morning. finger. Long time. Maybe that's more common. 155. >> All good. >> Thank you. >> Thank you. Hello. Yeah, they have all the paperwork. One thing we have to sign is to do Sorry. So, everything's contained in the kit like this. This just want to check that. Make sure it's not expired. Just put it in the tubes. And just for us, if it's expired, it's still okay cuz we're sometimes short. It's just the vacuum that it affects. >> So then you just Yep. It just may not suck at all as fast. >> Correct. >> There's supposed to be powder in the tube. I'm not set up here. >> Supposed to be powder. >> That just keeps it from clotting inside the tube cuz it gets sent through the mail. >> Okay. >> No, we're not setting up. >> Almost everybody. >> That's the first time I've ever heard anybody say that to me. That's funny. Yeah. It just prevents it from clotting. >> Okay. Now, this will be tight. >> And then with the label, you can >> always iodine. Never alcohol. >> Yeah. I was just going to say, you're going to understand why it's two gloves in just a minute. >> Mhm. >> This does get messy. >> Sticky. >> Yep. And we can clean it up afterwards, but now I have to use the iodine. Certain 10 to 30 seconds. just your highest. >> It's just like alcohol without the alcohol content >> cuz that could affect blood results. >> Oh yeah. >> Yep. >> So if he was to come in for like alcohol, it could affect it.

The driver's blood sugar was checked at a manageable level. Yet, he was booked into jail with conditional morning release only to a sober party after 6:30 a.m. Detention following DWI arrest allows holding until sober or for processing, but Minnesota statute 169 8.40 limits to reasonable time without excessive punishment. The officer admitted discretion to avoid Monday hold, but refused immediate release despite a potential ride from Alexandria, citing policy while the driver faced job loss and CDL risks. This prolonged incarceration for a thirdderee DWI pending months for blood results exemplified punitive overreach despite evidence leaning toward prescription only impairment.
