DWI Case | Prison Offense

Driving Under the Influence

State v. RA, (Carroll County-August 2007):

The State Police charged RA with the felony offense of Driving After Being Certified as a Habitual Offender, DWI 2nd, and Open Container after a State Trooper approached RA’s vehicle which was parked on an access road overlooking Chocorua Lake. This was RA's 5th DWI. Not surprisingly, the State was looking for 2-5 stand committed at the New Hampshire State prison if RA agreed to plead guilty. We filed a thoroughly researched Motion to Suppress, attacking the Trooper’s initial encounter with RA. The prosecutor refused to bend on her offer and asserted she was “not concerned” about the issues raised in the Motion. After a full-blown evidentiary hearing, the Court granted the Motion and the State was forced to drop all charges for lack of evidence. 

Result: All Charges Dropped.
