Former New England Patriots running back Corey Dillon was charged with a DUI in California. Based on the news account, it appears that police allege that Dillion was driving too slowly when he was stopped by police officers. Dillion had a passenger in the car. At a DUI trial, an individual charged with DUI can call as witnesses any person who was present in the car, as a witness to the motorist's driving and interaction with the police officer.
Further, the news accounts has a booking photograph of Dillon. While the officer probably stated in the police report that Dillon had bloodshot and glassy eyes, the booking photograph does not show Dillon's eyes to be bloodshot. Accordingly, in a Massachusetts DUI trial, a lawyer would use the photograph to contradict the officer and argue that although the motorist was angry, the photograph does not show that he was under the influence of alcohol.
