Two days later the same Blasi issue arises in Glen Burnie District Court. After reading the case, the judge agreed the officer had no basis for asking for SFSTs. The client was found not guilty. Had we gotten to trial there was an issue relating to the video tape....
I had a trooper today who now operates a non-video car. My last case was when he had a video and the charges were dismissed after reviewing the video. When the prosecutor told him I wanted a trial he was visibly displeased. Unlike his previous aggressive roadside...
The lawyer he hired lost his magic wand as well. Just checked and saw the guy got 30 days.
