Resume:
Camden-Wyoming, DE- The Delaware State Police arrested a Camden man early this morning for a 5th offense DUI.
The incident occurred around 12:50 a.m. this morning as a State Trooper on patrol in the area of Willow Grove Road and Pickett Road was running radar and clocked a vehicle westbound on Willow Grove Road traveling above the posted speed limit. As the Trooper turned and caught up to the car, it pulled into a residence off Willow Grove Road and drove behind the house where a traffic stop was conducted. The driver, who was later identified as Nelson E. Powell, then exited the vehicle and was immediately contacted by the Trooper. An odor of alcoholic beverage was detected and a DUI investigation ensued. Nelson Powell was subsequently taken into custody and transported back to Troop 3 near Camden.
A computer inquiry into Powell’s driver’s license revealed he had four previous DUI convictions (08/01/91, 08/14/00, 10/11/06, and 04/20/07); this arrest would make #5.
Powell was charged with the above listed offenses and arraigned a JP2. He was released after posting $7003.00 secured bond.

He was caught in the state of Delaware! What spill over?
The first two were spaced out by 9 and 6 years respectively. The other two were a year apart and this one is 5 years.
True he has an alcohol problem but they make it seem he is getting one every other month.
Not to lessen the seriousness of this but let's put away the spotlight and fireworks.
We need to have these drunks posted on a website so everyone can be aware of these killers behind the wheel. One mistake ok, but again and again, come on these people are repeat offenders, or career criminals, But becouse the lawmakers are drunks also , nothing is ever going to be done by them!
ReplyDeleteCareer criminals?! For DUI? Get a grip mother MADD.
