There has been countless times that a police officer has shown misconduct during a DUI arrest or even in making statements in their police reports and in court about the DUI stop. If the police officer made inaccurate statements about your DUI arrest in Fort Wayne, Indiana, they could lose substantial evidence that the prosecution needs in seeking a DUI conviction against you. If the State loses evidence at the suppression hearing that your DUI lawyer would file, it would not only weaken the State case against you but it could also lead to a reduced charge or ultimate dismissal of your DUI case.

Police officers sometimes fail to document certain aspects about your DUI arrest; this can be intentional or accidental. The police officer’s failure of recollection of events is usually due to being overworked or a poor memory. In some cases, giving inaccurate statements could be motivated by personal feelings or prejudices. But whatever the reason may be, failure of the police officer to make an accurate statement about your DUI arrest could be devastating to the State Attorney’s case against you.
