‘DISTURBING VIDEO’ SHOWS COPS FORCIBLY DRAWING BLOOD OF DUI SUSPECTS — AND IT’S LEGAL

In some counties in Georgia, drivers suspected of operating a vehicle while under the influence might be forced into submission for a blood draw as evidence — and it’s completely legal.

Back in April the Supreme Court said if cops wanted to forcibly draw blood from a drunk driving suspect, they needed a warrant. And police in Georgia are getting them to exercise this practice, according to WAGA-TV.

The outlet reported that the blood draws occur with a warrant after suspects refuse taking a breathalyzer test.

Should have done that with Nunzio.All alcohol charges are officially over with,which means he's off scott free.

Nunzio has been recharged. But as any first timer it will only be P.B.J. Worst case he will get 40 hr. community service.

It's quite amusing that with all the other issues at the BOE, one seems to think Chris Nunzio's DUI far out weighs the more important issues!
