He blew a 0.0 and they still insisted he was intoxicated and took urine. The cop said it came back positive for a drug the guy says he wasn't taking based on a test strip. Too bad, off you go. They are still waiting for the lab report. The Cape Chief was interviewed in the snooze press and he was asked, what if the urine test is really indicating something you took days ago. He said too bad, if the cop thinks you are intoxicated you are guilty. Interesting. I saw the original story but not the follow up. I met Petrovich once and he seemed like a reasonable guy. Maybe not. Something is definitely wrong with that whole incident and I hope it gets adjudicated in an intelligent manner. The problem with these kinds of news reports is that you don't know what prompted the investigation initially. It might have been an open container - there may have been visual or verbal clues - could be anything. I was stopped once after a 24 hour shift when we had a rash of medical incidents and I was the only available medic - I had maybe half hour of sleep or so and was stopped on the way home - I guess I was less than driving a straight line. Everything came back negative, but the cop was still suspicious, but he called the Chief and he explained the situation - he came out, I parked the car and the Chief took me home from there. You just can't have an opinion based on incomplete information. |
