Not quite sure if I found the right tread for this, if not please help me find we're to go. Thanks
Question:
I was driving home from work at 2 pm on wed oct. 31. I dropped my water bottle on the floor and I must have swerved when I picked it up. I continued down the freeway and took the exit to my house. As I was stopped, with my blinker on, an officer, passing the opposite direction, flipped around and pulled in behind me in my driveway as i was exiting my car. Im standing outside my car and the officer starts asking me a series of questions. He stated that someone had reporting me swearving on the freeway. He then asked if I had been drinking. I said no, and then was asked to blow into a breathalyzer, which I blew a 0.0. The officer then asked if I took drugs, which I said no. Then he asked if I took any medication that day which I said no, but I said I took my dr prescribed meds the night before, which are norco and soma.The cop then days "oh thats what it is." so he made me close my eyes is the freezing cold and wind and count to 30, well he said I counted to 45. Then he makes me walk, my shoes were untied And loosened up cause I just got off work, then he
Wants to look at my eyes, and then tells me I'm being arrested, but not for what. He proceeds to go threw my purse and car, without my permission. I had nothing illegal in there, but he comes back to the car and holds up a packet of pills and says everyone of these will be
A felony. I said turn the package over and see what they are.... They
Were fucking dramin for car sickness. He put the pills and my purse back and didn't
Say another word. So then he go opens my front door looks inside then locks the house and returns to take me to jail with only my car keys and cell phone. On the ride up there he proceeds to tell me that today was his first day working in my county. I took a urine test which only showed positive for the meds I take, plus that stuff will show up in your systems for days after u take it, so even if I was on meds that day you can't prove it like alcohol? I was also charged with drive under the influence of alchol. How can that be when i blew a 0.0. I would have atleast thought Id be charged with driving under the influence of drugs/ narcotics. I
know I can get fucked up at times and party like everyone else, but that particular day I wasn't. What do you guys think do I have a fighting chance against a DUI charge when I blew a 0.0
Let me give you a little background about me, I live In humboldt county, ca. I'm 30 years old, 5'8, about 125 lbs, long blonde hair, married, no kids, an adorable pit named Carmine. I have no previous criminal record, I was in my corporate work clothes when arrested not to mention my driveway. Im sure my neighbors have lots to talk about now
I recently started taken meds for a rotator cuff injury. Everything I take I've been prescribed and can provide records. I'm scared shitless to loose my license and my job. Anyone have any good feedback or been in a similar situation?
