Guy probably has a solid 12 hour chunk he doesn't remember whatsoever.
His sentence was light too. Only 48 hours in jail which is bs out here as our DUI laws are some of the hardest in country.
He's a rich white dude prominent in an area that doesn't have a lot. Was never gonna serve much time.

his actual charge was extreme DUI, classified as a Class 1 misdemeanor, and he could have gotten a maximum of 30 days in jail

but as UOK notes, he seems to have some privilege working in his favor

.193 is drunk but not black out drunk. 48 hours but that's not really his sentence. Here in Wisconsin it's a 12 hour hold or a release to a responsible party. Here for your first you lose your license and get a IID. Second gets you a few days jail time.

Eh... that's actually not terrible. That's a standard "drunk" breathalyzer reading.

My lone arrest for drinking when I was in my 20's (not a DUI) I blew a .35

.40 is considered fatal for most.

Yeah...

I drank an entire fifth of rum, probably 6 beers at the bar and broke into a 2nd fifth when I got back to the hotel (was visiting a buddy in Kalamazoo/WMU). I was arrested for hopping the fence to the outdoor pool after hours with my buddy and refusing to leave. More like not even realizing why we were asked to leave, to be honest. I only remember bits and pieces.

The positive? I was not hungover in jail when I woke up. I was still shit hammered. However, I did have to wait the entire day and night before they could release me. Since I was legally intoxicated until like 10 PM the next day. bahaha

The worst part was that I somehow managed to hookup with this super sexy chick at the bar, got her number and then lost my phone in the middle of the chaos. lol

The glory days, I tell you.
