Truth in Advertising: A PA Man is Arrested for DUI while Wearing a T-Shirt that reads: "Drunk Lives Matter" ~ Call Michael A. Haber, Esq. @ 1-888-SHARK-8-1




Meet 44 y/o Elwood R Gutshall III of Newville, PA.  That's him (for sure) and his wife (I am not sure about that) below...




On March 19, 2017 Elwood was reportedly pulled over by Newville Police Officers for "committing multiple traffic violations" and he was arrested for DUI after cops had reportedly determined that he "was under the influence of alcohol beyond what he could safely operate a motor vehicle."




Elwood's BAC was .217 (2.5 times the legal limit of .08) and so under PA law he was charged with "Highest-Rate DUI" (which bumps up a simple DUI when the BAC is higher than double the legal limit, or .16).




But the kicker to this story is Elwood's outfit - the t-shirt that he was wearing at the time that he was arrested for "Highest-Rate" DUI and when his mug shot was taken - which read "Drunk Lives Matter"




And the unfortunate aspects are that:  A) Elwood reportedly has "multiple prior DUI convictions" (because one of the only things that pisses off prosecutors and Judges more than folks who commit crimes are folks who commit the same crimes over and over)...



and B) that prosecutor, the Judge and the Jury will all have an opportunity to see that mug shot before deciding Elwood's fate ("truth in advertising").




Memo to the Folks:  A picture is worth 1,000 words.  




When it comes to the subject of drinking and driving, the best advice that you are ever going to hear is:  "Don't do it!  Get a DD (Designated Driver), not a DUI".


Be smart{er than Elwood R Gutshall III}: Don't drink and drive, but, if you do, just say "NO{thing}", don't blow (in FL your 2nd subsequent refusal is a crime) and call me stat at 305-381-8686, 305-798-2220 or 1-888-SHARK-8-1.
