Challenge DUI Evidence In Dayton

Challenge Evidence

Imagine you are on your way back from a late-night concert at the Fraze Pavilion. Tired and worn out, you don’t even see the officer until his patrol car is pulls out onto the road behind you. Soon, you’re on the side of the road answering questions and taking sobriety tests.

If an officer suspects that you are intoxicated, they will likely begin collecting evidence. They may ask you questions and request that you perform certain tests. The worst part about all of this is that the evidence that they collect is meant to be used against you, either in justifying an arrest or to aid in prosecution or both.

Presenting Your Defense

The United States uses an adversarial court system. In this system, neither the prosecution, nor the defense are meant to be objective. The role of a police officer is to assist in the prosecution of crimes. Many people don’t realize that, in their fulfillment of this role, officers are not objective. While they will do their best to administer tests properly and follow established guidelines, their purpose in doing so is often simply to ensure that the evidence they collect against you does not get thrown out.

If you are charged with a DUI in Dayton, you need an attorney. The court will objectively consider the positions presented by each side, but if there is no one available to present your defense, the prosecution won’t do it for you.
