NEW $99 - Innovative DUI Trial Tools - (800) 440-4780 by Bruce Kapsack
To win regularly, you need to capture both the hearts and the minds of jurors. The mind is simpler to persuade. You capture jurors’ minds through your cross examination, if the defense is one of prosecutorial problems … bad machine or bad procedures, or through your witnesses if the defense is something else … GERD, necessity, etc.
The heart is more difficult. To persuade the heart, you need to give jurors a simple answer to the question posed by family and friends, “How come you let the drunk go?” You need to make jurors want to let your client off.

$454 - Intoxication Test Evidence - (800) 344-5008 by Edward F. Fitzgerald Fitzgerald is the author of Intoxication Test Evidence 2d, (ITE) a unique publication that deals exclusively with the science of breath and blood testing and how to use that science in court cases. One of the enduring issues in DWI jurisprudence is the problem of determining blood alcohol level (BAC) at the time a person was driving. Most states have a DWI offense (called per se intoxication) under which a person is convicted with a simple showing that their BAC was 0.08% or greater - without any necessary showing that the person was impaired in judgment or motor skills by alcohol. Blood and breath testing, however, is often done hours after the individual drove. ITE devotes a great deal of coverage to explaining that BAC changes over time, and can be greater or less when tested than when the driving occurred, depending upon whether the individual's body is still absorbing alcohol at the driving time, and through all or most of the time before a test sample is collected (blood or breath). Whether the person's BAC is still rising, or is at or about the peak, or has passed the peak at the time test samples are collected, is a fact that is generally unknown to the prosecution in most cases. Without expert testimony, inferences from a later test as to the person's earlier driving BAC are left entirely to guesswork and speculation.
