Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol (DUI) – NOT GUILTY AFTER TRIAL

My client was observed by an Illinois State Trooper going 100 MPH and swerving back and forth in his lane of traffic. My client then goes into other lanes and almost struck another vehicle that had to veer to right to avoid a collision. When the trooper tried to pull my client over, he continued to drive. After about a mile my client finally attempted to pull over. He rode the median lane for 1/4 of a mile before stopping. The trooper immediately smelled a strong odor of alcohol coming from his breath and observed red/bloodshot and glassy eyes. My client was asked to perform field sobriety tests in which he failed. My client wanted a trial so I gave him one! After aggressive cross examination of the State Trooper, the judge found my client not guilty of the DUI. It was not easy because the whole incident was video recorded, however, thats when an aggressive attorney is needed! Another win for our team.
