Saturday, August 23rd, 2008

Judge Felts, 54 years of age, plead guilty to operating a vehicle while intoxicated. 

Judge Felts, as you may recall, backed into the police car that stopped him for a traffic infraction.

JMU James Madison University DWI Attorney Bob Keefer: Did Legal Age 21 kill this lady and destroy this Student’s dream of being a U.S. Navy Pilot?

Saturday, August 23rd, 2008

Brian Anthony Reid, of

Graham, North Carolina, pled guilty on August 21, 2008 to felony death by vehicle and impaired driving.

Reid, a former N.C. State student, who struck and killed a cyclist as Reid drove home from class drunk, on his 21st Birthday. 

Reid, then an engineering major also in the Naval Reserve Officer’s Training Corps, went drinking the night before to celebrate his 21st Birthday. 

Reid’s friends drove him home drunk, where he slept a few hours before driving to class still intoxicated. 

Reid blew a .12 on the evidentiary breath machine after the collision. 

Reid was placed on probation for three years, ordered not to drink or drive during that time, perform 400 hours of community service including 100 visits to local high schools to talk about the dangers of drunk driving. 

Reid also was ordered to spend 5 weekends in jail and pay more than $10,000 in restitution for medical and funeral bills. 

Reid had hoped to be a Navy pilot but that dream is probably gone with his felony conviction. 

I am afraid that both Reid and the noble lady he killed were victims of Legal Age 21. 

Legal Age 21 made his birthday a milestone where he could legally drink so he went overboard – just like people always do when things are forbidden to them. 

We lost a fine Lady and a Navy pilot to Legal Age 21.  I am sure MADD will forget to take its share of the credit for this tragedy.

Harrisonburg Virginia DWI Attorney Bob Keefer: Congressman Fossella should be able to show the “dated, unstable & unreliable” Intoxilyzer 5000 is not reliable

Saturday, August 23rd, 2008

New York Representative Vito Fossella has postponed his DWI trial in Alexandria, Virginia. 

Congressman Fossella’s Attorney asked for the continuance as

Virginia’s Department of Forensic Science had failed to provide all documents concerning its “dated, unstable and unreliable” Intoxilyzer 5000. 

Fossella was arrested for DWI after being stopped for running a red light. 

Fossella was first tested on a non-working Intoxilyzer 5000 at the Alexandria police station before being taken to the Mt. Vernon station where

Mt. Vernon’s machine gave a reading of .17.
 

Fossella faces a mandatory minimum jail sentence of five days due to his .17 bac.
