DUI charges were dropped against a Miami, Florida woman who was framed for DUI by the police. Police video shows that the police attempted to blame Alexandra Torrensvilas for causing an accident that was caused by a police officer. The officer pinned the DUI on Torrensvilas and used the fact that she admitted to drinking to support the deception .
According to newspaper accounts, the police planned how to manipulate the police report to absolve the officer of responsibility for the accident, pinning it on Torrensvillas. While this case is certainly an extreme case of police misconduct, DUI charges are easy for police officers to exaggerate because a Massachusetts DUI is a crime of opinion. If an officer overstates the driving, exaggerates the unsteadiness of the client on the field sobriety tests, these errors may go unchallenged unless the case is brought to trial. Even an honest officer, may overstate observations either because of pressure to make DUI arrests that result in convictions or unconsciously as a result of making numerous arrests over the years.
It is important to call an experienced Massachusetts OUI lawyer if charged with drunk driving. It is only after careful review of the police report and other evidence, that you can determine whether the police can prove that you were operating under the influence of alcohol. Call Attorney DelSignore for a free consultation and let him help prepare your case.
