Bloodshot eyes are no longer considered to be a clue of impairment by alcohol. There are just too many other causes in the normal environment. See attachment E. page 10 of the NHTSA publication: "The Detection of DWI at BACs Below 0.10." [PDF]
Description: Bloodshot eyes are no longer considered to be a clue of impairment by alcohol. There are just too many other causes in the normal environment. See attachment E. page 10 of the NHTSA publication: "The Detection of DWI at BACs Below 0.10."
Attached is a 2003 study called “Nystagmus Testing in Intoxicated Individuals”. Page 2, paragraph 6 reads: “Virtually all normal individuals can make smooth pursuit eye movements to track targets up to 30deg/sec…. If a target moves too quickly for the smooth pursuit system to track accurately, brief catch-up saccades will be interposed……and the eyes will been seen to jerk as they follow the stimulus.” [PDF]

Jones v Commonwealth, CAV finds lack of adequate grounds to stop appellant for Terry stop. [PDF]
Description: CAV favorably decided today the Terry-stop case of Rodney Jones v. CW (trial court erred in denying motion to suppress firearm seized from appellant's person as officer lacked adequate grounds to stop appellant).

In Jones, cops on routine patrol in high crime area at 10:30 a.m. see D & 2 other guys. Officers approach. D briskly walks away holding right hand to his right side. As D walks briskly to nearby townhouse, D ignores officer's order to stop. Officer grabs D before D enters home, & frisks. CW argued Wardlow case that high crime area & D's flight justify seizure. CAV disagrees, & distinguishes instant Jones case from Wardlow b/c (1) in Wardlow, D saw cops & had "headlong flight" running away into an alley, while here D walked briskly towards nearby house; & (2) in Wardlow, narcotics cops were looking for drugs in drug area & saw D with opaque baggie in hand, while here cops were on routine patrol. So, lesson is walk brisk, don't run.
Woody v Commonwealth: Appellant's failure to name County under appeal from local ordinance fatal. [PDF]
Description: CAV today issued published opinion of Robert Woody v. CW (appeal of DWI conviction under County code section dismissed where appellant failed to name County as a party to the appeal and, as result, this Court lacks jurisdiction over an indispensable party). Two appeal lessons from this: (1) If convicted under local ordinance, better name County as the appellee, or appeal is dismissed. (2) The related Refusal-1st conviction wasn't properly appealled to CAV b/c it's civil [but CAV ordered it to be transferred to VaSupCt upon completion of DWI local ordinance appeal]. Note that CAV asked Circuit Court to clarify what D was convicted of for the DWI given the Circuit Order of "18.2-266/ 9.1"- Circuit Court clarified "DWI under local ordin. 9.1".
Harrisonburg DUI DWI Lawyer Bob Keefer: Illegal Stop by Police Officer results in suppression of evidence. [PDF]
Description: Alaska Court of Appeals affirms lower court’s suppression order. Police officer illegally attempts to stopdefendant(cop thinks headlights required when they weren’t yet required).

Defendant charged with several different offenses, including DUI/felony eluding, resisting, etc. Trial court suppresses all evidence after the blue lights come on, despite the subsequent eluding conduct.

Luray DWI DUI Lawyer Bob Keefer: Breath can cause a positive on the breath tester [PDF]
Description: This study of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC’s) produced during the production of fermented bread products contains many lines of research and large bodies of published work.

Attached is a recent publication documenting various VOC’s detected in sourdough bread and the decline in amount of VOC over time.

As a result there are few quick and simple answers to the “what if” questions regarding VOC’s causing a false positive result with any breath alcohol testing device.

Having stated that, the most simple conclusion is that 1) fermented bread products produce multiple VOC’s that will give a positive breath result (the most notable VOC is ethanol) and 2) fresh baked bread appears to have the highest concentration of VOC’s compared to older bread.

It seems that the amount of VOC from a fermented bread product contaminating a persons breath sample would depend, at least, on 1) the concentration of VOC’s in that bread 2) the amount of residual bread in the person’s mouth 3) the length of time the bread was in the person’s mouth.

Typical Marijuana high lasts 2 hours
Description: It is inadvisable to try and predict effects based on blood THC concentrations alone, and currently impossible to predict specific effects based on THC-COOH concentrations.

Concentrations vary depending on the potency of marijuana and the manner in which the drug is smoked, however, peak plasma concentrations of 100-200 ng/mL are routinely encountered. Plasma THC concentrations generally fall below 5 ng/mL less than 3 hours after smoking.

The infra-red absorption spectra of fourteen organic compounds, including seven alcohols and seven miscellaneous compounds, have been studied in the region from 1Î¼ to 7.5Î¼. The bands in the region from 1Î¼ to 3Î¼ have been classified as overtones or combination bands20of the assumed fundamental bands for the alcohols at about 3.00Î¼, 3.4Î¼, 6.8Î¼, and 9.8Î¼. By the use of Sappenfield's work for the region from 1Î¼ to 2Î¼ and that of Weniger from 7.5Î¼ to 10Î¼ and the present work a fairly complete idea of the infra-red absorption spectra of the alcohols has been obtained. The intensity relations have been discussed briefly and it was shown that they were in general in accordance with combinations attributed to the different bands. The bands of the miscellaneous organic compounds have been classified, but all the bands have not been included as only the fundamentals at 3.4Î¼ and 6.8Î¼ were used. A probable reason for the similarity of the infra-red spectra of many organic compounds in the region from 1Î¼ to 3Î¼ has been suggested.

Breath Alcohol testing discrminates against people with small lung volumes such as women [PDF]
Description: A long string of peer-reviewed research from Dr. Hlastala's boratory at the University of Washington has led to the conclusion that the alcohol breath test is biased against subjects with smaller lung volume. This bias is caused by the fact that exhaled alcohol changes it’s concentration as it passes form the alveoli to the mouth. This is caused by the interaction of alcohol in the air with the mucosa of the pulmonary airways. During exhalation the alcohol concentration continues to increase is long as exhalation is proceeding. The basic assumptions of the alcohol breath test (as currently used) are invalid.

This document is a copy of the latest peer-reviewed paper in his series of studies. The net result of this study is that the rise in alcohol concentration during exhalation means that people with smaller lung volumes must exhale a greater fraction of their available breath volume to fulfill the minimum exhaled volume requirements of all breath testing instruments. An individual with a smaller lung volume must exhale further into the rising alcohol concentration before a breath sample can be taken.

Dr. Hlastala's report shows that this is true comparing individuals with large lung volumes and those with small lung volumes. The effect is greatest when comparing large subjects with small subjects of the same race and gender. It is weaker when comparing males and females. The effect is minimal when comparing African Americans with Caucasians. The effect has yet to be evaluated for Latinos (having smaller lung volumes) or other racial groups.
