"... local defense lawyer Lawson Wills, who claims that [officer] Cole has an "over-aggressive" style in his pursuit of tipsy motorists."

I Smell more to this story...
this isn't the first one of his thrown out?

Reserving comment until we get the rest.

I no longer drink, but if me or one of my loved ones was caught DUI in Aspen, I know which attorney I would hire.

I'm no fan of lawyers, but when you need one, you get the best you can afford.

I'm amazed it wasn't plead out. Normally the BAC is the final word on DUIs.

Let's just hope this woman doesn't kill someone next time.

Definitely more to the story. I haven't had a drink in decades but I'd assume someone with that level would be all over the road. Wonder if that cop has been out of line on previous cases.

In Colorado the justice system is pretty honest other than the part of "Not able to afford a good lawyer" = "guilty". I lived in Chicago for a few years in the early '70's and that own was openly corrupt. I worked for a retired police captain who liked to tell stories. Back then the going rate to beat a DUI was $5000. The judge got most, DA & lawyer & cop split the rest. I can't see that happening here when it causes that much publicity.
