Macon DUI Case Result: Client Acquitted Despite 0.151 BAC Reading

Our Macon DUI defense team successfully defended a client charged with multiple DUI offenses in Bibb County State Court. Despite facing serious charges and a blood alcohol content (BAC) reading of 0.151 – nearly twice the legal limit – our client was acquitted of all DUI charges at a bench trial.

Our Client’s Original Charges

The client was initially charged with:

  • DUI (Driving Under the Influence)
  • DUI Less Safe (Alcohol)
  • DUI Per Se (BAC over 0.08)
  • Speeding (50 mph in a 35 mph zone)

Case Details

Traffic Stop

The arrest occurred on Riverside Drive in Macon when our client was stopped for speeding 15 mph over the posted limit. The Georgia State Patrol officer reported observing signs of impairment and conducted field sobriety tests.

Evidence Against Our Client

  • Blood test results showing BAC of 0.151
  • Failed field sobriety tests
  • Officer observations of impairment
  • Admission to consuming alcohol

Defense Strategy

Our experienced Macon DUI attorneys identified critical weaknesses in the prosecution’s case, challenging:

  • The reliability of the blood test procedures
  • The administration and interpretation of field sobriety tests
  • The officer’s observations and conclusions
  • Chain of custody issues with evidence

Trial Outcome

ACQUITTED: All DUI-related charges
CONVICTED: Speeding violation only

This outstanding result demonstrates the importance of experienced DUI defense representation, even in cases with seemingly overwhelming evidence.

Why This Case Matters

This case illustrates several key points about Georgia DUI defense:

High BAC Doesn’t Guarantee Conviction

Even with a BAC nearly twice the legal limit, skilled defense attorneys can challenge the prosecution’s case and achieve favorable outcomes.

Technical Defenses Matter

Proper handling of blood evidence, adherence to testing protocols, and constitutional protections all play crucial roles in DUI cases.

Experience Makes the Difference

Our deep understanding of Georgia DUI law and courtroom experience in Bibb County enabled us to identify and exploit weaknesses in what appeared to be a strong prosecution case.
