Question on DUI in Frederick County, Virginia. No breath/blood tests given nor were there any field tests... Opinions?
Anonymous1 views4 answers
Gas station attendant called police to report suspicious activity because of how the car pulled in and stopped for a little while. Police showed up while no keys were in the vehicle nor was the car in motion. I was arrested for DUI but gave no explanation nor was asked to do any field tests of any kind. After arriving back to the station, no blood tests were given or rejected. The commonwealth attorney is attempting to bring one of my friends in for questioning on the stand. Obviously outside of that, the officer will probably attest I was intoxicated. I never admitted to driving (although there may be video?) ...I have a lawyer on retainer, but wanted some second opinions on how this may go or not go in my favor.
Sorry, that is not how this works. If you want a legal opinion about your case you should consult with other attorneys in s confidential consultation. This is public, and not an attorney/client relationship. Any answer you get here will be stupid and uninformed composted to the attorney you already have who knows your case and your prosecutor better than the internet does.
There are a lot of factors that go into a case. It strikes me as odd that no testing was done. Honestly, you need to trust your current lawyer or hire a new one.
You have a lawyer, would be inappropriate for us to comment on your case, based on your limited comments, so you can compare our responses/recommendations against those of a lawyer who knows ALL the facts and ALL the circumstances that will impact your options.
Apples and oranges.
If you want a 2nd opinion, then you'll want to get off and retain another lawyer. I used to practice in Frederick County and can attest that there are many talented criminal defense attorneys in the area you can look up.
