Getting pulled over by the police for any reason ruins your day. Getting pulled over for a DUI investigation is even worse. Sometimes, people pass a breathalyzer and still get arrested for DUI – It seems crazy, but it happens. If police suspect someone is high on drugs, or drowsy from prescription drugs they can get an order from a judge to have your blood drawn. Results from blood draws take weeks, in the meantime you’ll get arrested, spend a night in jail, and could be facing serious criminal charges. Even if you did nothing wrong, you could be facing a DUI charge. On top of that, an overly aggressive prosecutor could push the charge, and try to force you into a plea. It’s important to have someone in your corner to help you stand up against bogus charges. If you have been charged with a crime in Idaho, the lawyers at Racine Olson, PLLP can walk you through every step and prepare you for the best defense possible.
