COURT AGREES WITH WALLIN: DEFENDANT IN SHOCK, NOT DRUNK!
Mr. J. was charged with DUI after he hit a parked car. During Mr. Wallin’s cross-examination, the police officer admitted that, although Mr. J. swayed and stumbled as he walked immediately after the accident, by the time they reached the police station, he was able to walk perfectly fine. After hearing all the evidence, the Court agreed with Mr. Wallin that the evidence was consistent with a person in shock, not intoxicated, and that State did not prove its case beyond a reasonable doubt.
