Here's yet another story of a law enforcement officer getting arrested for a DUI. This one is from Tennessee.
Former Grainger Co. sheriff arrested for DUI: "JOPPA (WATE) -- Former Grainger County Sheriff Richard McElhaney was arrested on a DUI charge Monday by the Tennessee Highway Patrol.
McElhaney, 55, is also charged with violating the implied consent law.
He was pulled over at 4:00 p.m. for weaving on Highway 11W west of Rutledge in the Joppa community as he drove a 1993 Chevrolet pick-up truck.
The Highway Patrol says McElhaney refused a breathalyzer test.
He was released from the Grainger County Jail on bond."
It never ceases to amaze us that law enforcement officers seem to commit the crime of DUI as much as civilians. I wonder if DUI defense attorneys and DUI prosecutors do too?
