No Refusal Weekend and the Squeezer
Sometime soon, drunken driving suspects in Kane County will have a new choice: Get your blood-alcohol level measured in a breath, blood, urine test, have your blood drawn involuntarily or to be squeezed by a device that gathers a fecal sample.
On No Refusal Weekend the option of refusing to take a test will not be available. At least not to drivers arrested by St. Charles, Batavia and Geneva police and Kane County sheriff's deputies.
On No Refusal Weekend, police will seek a search warrant to draw your blood or obtain a fecal sample via the "Squeezer". Search warrants have been written and stored at the Geneva Police Department; all officers have to do is fill in the specific details, have an assistant state's attorney review it and track down a participating judge, even at home, to sign it.
i wouldn't trust any cop that encourages the fecal deal.
ReplyDeletecome to think of it i wouldn't trust the cop no matter what choice he recommended.
i'd like to see some cop try and squeese the shit out of me..
ReplyDeleteI don't think the founding fathers had stacks of pre-written search warrants in mind.
ReplyDeleteDrunk drivers are a real problem...but this is pretty far out.
