Boston police arrested someone by the name and Larry Davis back in January
2013 and the reason why they did that is because he was driving erratically and
they were concerned that he was driving while intoxicated
so they pulled over and they made him do a field sobriety test
now let's take a quick look at that video and then I'm gonna tell you what
but his blood alcohol level was take a look
yes
way
them
colony
power guilty ok yet so there's a small portion of the year that I should tell
you guys about
obviously had to edit it down because it was a long video but there's one part
where they ask him to like balance
and he didn't balance long enough he kinda liked but losses bounds for a
second as soon as that happened they handcuffed him and he said he didn't
have the field sobriety test
was in the real I'm tell you guys all this and putting it all in context
is because after he %uh did the breathalyzer
it turned out that he had no alcohol in his system it was 8.00
he admitted to having a drink earlier that day but it didn't matter even
though he was not intoxicated he got arrested and detained for a DUI
I lost my bells earlier today in the gym
something that was drunk okay yeah I medium
you literally can get lower than 0.00
and they arrested him anyway so they arrested him anyway he spent a night in
jail as a result of this DUI arrest he also volunteered to do a blood test he
did a blood test came back negative so he was not intoxicated while he was
behind the wheel
now right now we have no video evidence indicating that he was driving
erratically all we can do is really believe with the cops are telling us
that but they're also saying that you know they still stand by their decision
to arrest him and detain him I should note that is I
charges were later dropped but here's what a police official said
if there's someone who was possibly impaired we don't want them driving we
need to get them off the road
so that was probably the officers mindset so that was what was going
through their mind they're totally justifying it
and this is apparently a really big issue in Austin
I because a lot of people have been detained for drunk driving when they
haven't really been drunk in fact
aggressive enforcement tactics made by police in Austin
cost about 30 percent drunk driving cases to be dismissed
yeah and Travis County and in this way comes atop the commander Sonata keep
arrest him even if they're not even if they're obviously not drug
drunk it is led Travis carried out the highest percentage a DUI case dismissals
among major texas counties so these is as you read 30 percent so
the case keep can dismiss guys did not actually drunk
but the commanders are saying and I just just in case just in case
I don't know if they think they're hitting some sorta quarter I don't know
if they think they're being tough on crime
but they're isn't any crime there's he'd they were drunk in the first place
right and they've taken a talk comical level they have and also keep in mind
that you know some might argue alright well you know they're just
it's better to be safe than sorry there driving erratically and it turns out
that the breathalyzer indicates they're not drunk well
let's play devil's advocate maybe they should be detained maybe they should be
arrested because you want to get them off the streets as well
but that again if you're not breaking any laws if you are driving in a way
that's considered illegal
you should get a citation for that way if you're driving recklessly that's
another thing
but that was not the case here they thought that he seem like he might be
intoxicated they stopped him
he wasn't under the influence of anything you got a little girl people
are being arrested for DUI
and then they have to kill warrior and they start getting these legal fees
right
and what that they don't end up paying the legal fees in some counties
throughout the United States you get thrown in prison
because I but because I'm the inability to pay that citation or whatever legal
fee you can relate as a result about him by the way he spent a day in jail
I mean you blow 0.00 any spin the danger why
cuz he's indigent and Nick Kirk the
state exit their point miller et cetera sissies poor
nobody came together they didn't have the money to get him right
like if honestly like it was one of us would be a jail
immediately right but nobody had the money to go to come get him so he spends
a day in jail when he's
the obviously in the most non guilty person you've ever seen
