Anonymous5 views3 answers
p.o.said he arrested me at scene of fender bender first time saw and talked to him was at hospital he told nurse not to administer doctor ordered medication unless i gave blood test i was in pain only reason i did. asked for council was denied got charged but never got the notice found out years later had only my doctors medication in me methacarbonal a muscle relaxer i feel i was forced and intimidated then when read p.o. report astounded by the flat out lies me thinks since he did lie so easily might be "overlooked"or even accepted by court got public defender she has not said much yet
If you can show that the officer actually instructed the nurse to withhold your medication in order to get your consent, then you can probably get the blood results suppressed. Since years have gone by, you'll have a hard time doing this. You should point out all of the inconsistencies in your report to your lawyer and have her evaluate. Not all inconsistencies are of equal importance, so follow your lawyer's lead.
You have some good potential issues to raise. Be patient with your public defender, she probably has 3 times the case load that the rest of us have to deal with, but may be a very good attorney.
DUI law is a specialty in itself. You might want to go find someone who specializes in DUI law in Tacoma and see if you can get a free consultation so they can get all the details and give you a more advised opinion.
