Austin, Texas police arrested an innocent man who blew a 0.00 on a breathalyzer, then charged him with a DWI, despite both the breathalyzer and a further blood test finding no drugs in his system. From KVUE: AUSTIN -- One man endured a night in jail and a criminal case hanging over his head for year, only to have prosecutors say they don’t think he was even guilty of a crime.Due to the absence of any evidence, prosecutors eventually dropped the charges against Davis. Nonetheless, Austin police "commander" David B. Mahoney, the officer's supervisor who is paid $126,671 a year, says he thinks the officer "did the right thing." He says he may have been other drugs, like "marijuana." "If there is someone who is impaired, we don't want them driving," Mahoney said. If there is someone whose judgment is so impaired as to think it's justifiable to arrest someone for a DWI after testing 0.00, we don't want them policing. Commander Mahoney and his minions should be fired immediately. Unfortunately, he was hired by Austin police chief Art Acevedo, who probably feels Davis should just be happy the cops didn't rape him.
