Hey guys my girlfriend from East Baton Rouge was recently stopped by a City EBR patrolman. He stopped her for improper lane usage. Upon him stopping her he questioned if she had been drinking to which she stated she had a few. He then performed a field sobriety test on her and she passed. She then refused to breath in the breathalyzer. He arrested her and booked her into jail. Upon the inprocessing he asked if she was seeking counsel. She stated that she would be. he then added an additional charge of wreckless driving.
Can you add an additional charge to a person depending on if they are seeking counsel or not. Can you convict a person of DWI with a 0.00 BAC reading? If the cop does not show up to that date in court or if he does will it have any affect? Ive researched and found that there were many tickets written for DWI 1st along with these additional wreckless driving charges on other drivers that same week by the EBR police department?
How can ones right to attain counsel add additional charges? And if you dont have a Blood Alchol reading and all you have is a suspicioon of use with no proof how can you convict of DWI? No liquor bottles , no wreck, no speeding, no careless operation, just switching lanes on the interstate without a signal at 1030 at night? Any advice would be appreciated.
