Anonymous3 views4 answers
Charged with: DWAI drugs, leaving the scene of accident, open container, consumption of alcohol in motor vehicle, failure to stay in lane, and refusal to take breath test. I did take the breath test about 3 hours later when offered a 2nd time at the station and came to 0.0%. Given physical tests, which claimed I was under the influence of opiates. I am 18 years old and this is my first run-in like this...What is my likely outcome?
The fact that you had an accident is bad. However, you appear to be Youthful Offender eligible so you can come out of this without a criminal record. I suggest you hire a good criminal defense lawyer.
These things can be dealt with if you hire the right lawyer, I.e. one with experience in the court you will appear in. Be prepared to lose your license for awhile.
There are some excellent DWI attorneys in the capital district. I suggest you consult with one or more of them without delay. In the meantime, exercise your right to remain silent.
