point and I don't want to go my kids
because they're going kids
and and
stuff okay I've been through a lot but I
no excuse
[Music]
to my kid can have a house the what my
kids can
[Music]
do have a house job everything know I'm
proud of myself for being
I have got in the past couple
years
but I'm not very strong with so you know
you're not supposed to be driving though
right you know and and I'll be honest
with you andette your your story doesn't
really make a whole lot of sense to me I
mean I understand you're you're going
through some rough times and stuff but
your story doesn't really make sense to
me as as to what's going on tonight okay
um people who
maybe are tired or something they don't
stop at a stop
sign you know and then just fall asleep
I don't know how long you even been here
asleep at the stop sign I have no idea I
can tell you you were asleep for long
enough for me to drive by go through a
whole another neighborhood and come back
this way and still see you asleep right
at the whe okay and I couldn't tell at
first whether you were asleep or not but
then when I circled back around that's
when I saw that you were asleep right
and so your your story doesn't make a
whole lot of sense to me I mean you're
saying well I you know I'm tired and I
came up to a stop sign and and then the
he got to me so that's what caused me to
fall
asleep you know and then and then your
story's kind of all over the place about
where you at who what you're doing
exactly you know and so I'll just be
honest with you a lot of the things that
you're telling me don't make a whole lot
of sense right now you know what I'm
saying you know and I understand rough
times and people going through rough
times and stuff like that okay but I've
been doing this job for a little bit
okay
um so you know it it really is in your
best interest that you're honest okay um
because you're not supposed to be
driving you and I both know you're not
supposed to be driving you don't even
possess a driver's license you possess
an identification card right so you're
not even supposed to be driving the car
okay

I'm going to I'm going to be honest with
you okay uh there there's no firearms

you're good put your feet in that little
cubby hole okay hold on I'm getting a
Chelly first bottom My
Cup going lean up on the sleep so I can
straight up my foot M to straight up the
cab okay you all right yeah I'll be
right a
bit all right listen to me I'm going to
read you something okay he listen to me
I'm about to tell you something
important you're under arrest for
driving under the influence of
intoxicating liquor or drugs the New
Mexico inite consent act requires you to
submit to a breath test to determine the
alcohol content of your blood after you
take our test you have the right to
choose an additional independent test if
you choose to take this additional
independent test you have the right to a
reasonable opportunity to arrange for a
physician a license nurse or laboratory
technician or technologist who is
employed by a hospital or physician of
your own choice to perform an additional
no chemical test the cost of this this
additional test will be paid for by the
law enforcement agency do you agree to
take our
tests and
have
you have the right to yeah you have the
right to an independent test if you wish
oh so if you want that I'll give you a
reasonable uh time to try to find
someone to call or or something after
you take our breath test
I'm not really understanding to so this
is this is for the breath test okay this
is done at the Sheriff's Office this is
a breath tested test for alcohol in your
blood okay uh do do you understand so
far do you need me to read it
again um we just got a little confused
because it's independent tast and yeah
so all this is saying is after you're
done with our breath test if you want to
you can have an independent test done
that's whether it's an independent
breath test or an independent blood test
it's your responsibility to find someone
in order to do that but you'd have to
find someone who's employed by a
hospital a physician or a nurse or U of
that you know of to come and do that
independent test does that make sense
yeah so it's just another blood test yes
sir and that's up to you if you want to
do that do you understand yes okay so so
far knowing what I read to you do you
agree to take our
test
um the bir leg this yeah yes they do
okay I'm going to read you the rest of
this in case you change your mind okay I
cannot force you to take our test but if
you refuse you will lose your New Mexico
driver's license or non-resident
operating privilege for one year if
you're convicted in court of driving
under the influence you may also receive
a greater sentence because you refuse to
be tested do you
understand your right to speak to an
attorney or remain silent does not apply
to the requirement of New Mexico law
that you take a breath test do you now
agree to be tested yes sir okay open
your
mouth I have ha my my lips are getting I
got it my li lips okay open your mouth
lift up your tongue turn your head to
your right to your other right to your
right that way there you

okay so I'm what's called a Dr it's a
drug recognition expert and so what I
want to do if it it's it is completely
voluntary it's up to you what it is is a
a whole bunch of other tests like we'll
do like the physical test kind of like
what we did on scene but then I do a
bunch of other tests I check your pupils
I check your blood pressure I check your
pulse rate I ask you a whole bunch of
questions um and then based on what I'm
what I'm seeing or not seeing during
those tests um I can come to an opinion
on what kind of possible drug categories
that you might be under the influence of
and that would be the only opinion that
you're looking for it's just pretty much
doing a bunch of tests to see what kind
of if there's impairment if there is an
impairment what kind of drugs that you'd
possibly be on um it's a bunch of tests
that usually takes about an hour
um like I said it's completely voluntary
are you willing to do
that like I said I haven't do nothing
since Friday I just don't want anything
to go against
me like I said it's voluntary I know the
test
might willing to do it I just not
sure say that again if I knew what the
test were
um might be my R you know I mean um I
just don't want anything to go against
me going fight de me to take
time
um I know the best B to um but so that's
what I want to say okay I'm not trying
to be difficult or anything okay no
problem so no you don't want to do the
test like I said it's totally volunte no
way it would help me right
no I mean it's just going to be tests
that okay you
know then no okay uh that's okay I'm
going to read you one more thing okay
before I do all my pible that right no
that's totally voluntary okay I'll I'll
notate it in my report that that I asked
you um and that you said no okay so
don't feel bad of course it's voluntary
I can't force you to do any kind of test
or anything like that okay
yeah I washed my card here I'm just I'm
just going to read something to you okay
yes all right listen to me I'm about to
tell you something important including a
right you have okay you're under arrest
for driving under the influence of
intoxicating liquor or drugs I'm
requesting that you consent to have your
blood drawn and tested to determine the
alcohol and or drug content of your
blood you have the right to refuse
consent to my request if you refuse to
consent you may face you you may you
cannot face criminal penalties for your
refusal okay do you understand that
right yes sir however that was not face
hey say that again that was not face not
face criminal
consequences however refusing consent
has other consequences in accordance
with the New Mexico implied consent act
and state law those consequences may
include losing your New Mexico driver's
license or non-resident operating
privilege for one year Additionally the
fact that you refused consent may be
used as evidence against you in court
okay do you understand these
consequences I understand what you're
saying agree with him but yeah okay if
you choose to take the or sorry
additionally if you consent to have your
blood drawn and tested you have the
right to choose an additional
independent test oh if you choose to
take this additional independent test
you have the right to original
opportunity to arrange for a physician a
licensed nurse or laboratory technician
or technologist who is employed by a
hospital or physici by of your own
choice to perform an additional chemical
test the cost of this additional test
will be paid for by the law enforcement
agency knowing your right to refuse
consent the possible consequences and
your right to an independent test do you
give consent to have your blood drawn
and
tested um no I'm not getting in trouble
right no I can't I again I can't force
you do you understand what I read to you
though yes so with the blood with the
blood side of of the whole testing
process I can't so if you refuse breath
it turns aggravated your your DUI turns
into an aggravated right you just did
that so when you refuse the blood test
it doesn't do that it doesn't turn it
into an aggravated but as it said when I
read it to you it can be used as
evidence against you
in my report and when it gets to court
it could be used as evidence against you
but but again there's no
consequences as far as it turning into
an aggravated DUI or anything like that
okay does that make sense okay do you
understand that I do okay still
consequen but not okay yeah okay do you
have any questions um no okay give me a
little bit okay okay
