Idaho State Senator Facing Felonies after DUI
An Idaho state senator was arrested and charged with driving under the influence and grand theft auto after what is being called "bizarre" behavior over the weekend. According to reports, the senator was drinking at a golf course around 10pm on Saturday and left there on foot. He then allegedly stole a Ford Excursion with a trailer and jackknifed it in a driveway.
Two teenagers awoke their mom around 2:00am to tell her about what was going on in their driveway. After jackknifing the Ford, the senator then got out of the vehicle, wandered around the property, walked up and down the road, and then got into the back of the vehicle where he fell asleep.
The man who lived on the property went out to speak with the barefoot senator who told the homeowner he was "looking for the promised land."
When police arrived, the senator said he was headed to Jackpot, Nevada. He was taken to jail without resistance. He was given a breathalyzer and blew a BAC of .15. He then spent Father's Day in jail.
The senator's spokespeople say the senator is obviously embarrassed. What will happen to his political future is still up in the air, but he was mentioned as a candidate for higher office once upon a time.
If you have been charged with a DUI in the Orange County or Orlando, Florida area, or anywhere else in the state of Florida, please contact the experienced criminal defense attorneys at the Umansky Law Firm today.
