I live in a small town which everyone knows everyone including the police and the judge are all buddies. With all that said, I was arrested in February 2009 for alleged dui other. Based on the fact that I had a presciption that was prescribed to me in my jacket pocket.
The cop has a personal proble with me since i moved to this town. He of course would never admit something like that. But to the point.
I was clearing out a building on February 3,4,5 none stop because the property was about to be foreclolsed upon. Knowing that the property needed to be in the best condtion necessary I stayed there to complete the clearing of he building.
At about 10:30 am feb. 5 I ordered a pizza for lunch and drove to b-kwik to pick it up. I was starting to have low blood sugar plus exhausted for not sleeping. But the cop gets word from another cop in this 4 cop town that I was leaving the property. I then drove directly in front of the police station to get to the store. So I obviously wouldn't have done that if I was impaired legally or ilegally.
Anyway I do the breathalizer asnd did not register any alcohol. I did the other test and was starting to fail hand eye coordination. I was starting to get tunnel vision and about to pass out. I told the cop this and he didn't seem to care.
We get to the sheriff office and I offered to them blood test and also urine test which they were not interested in. They just put me in the drunk tank until later that day my wife found out where I was.
The video of him following me shows that I touched the yellow center line not crossing it and then later touched the white line also not crossing it. This all took place in about 1500 feet.
Do you think that I would have a civil case being that they did not arrest me based on any fact of intoxicants?
Thank you in advance for your answer and support. Paul H.
