  1. “Standardized Field Sobriety Test” also known as a “Divided Attention Test”, is an official sounding test, yet is completely skewed to fail, even for stone cold sober people. You are not required to submit to any “Standardized Field Sobriety Test” whatsoever, EVER. You are not required to blow into their field sobriety apparatus. You are not required to answer any questions like “where are you going, where are you coming from, blah, blah, blah”. In short, for anytime you are pulled over, be polite, DO NOT OFFER ANY INFORMATION ABOUT ANYTHING. SHUT YOUR MOUTH. Ask the policeman what he requires for documents, then tell the officer you won’t be talking any more because you are invoking your 5th Amendment Right to remain silent, THEN SHUT YOUR MOUTH. Cops are not your friend, they are being friendly to try to get your to self-incriminate.
    That being said this ex-teacher is a moron, an absolute douche. He played with fire and now he’s going to burn.

    14
    13
    1. Refusal to take the tests without justification can be used against you at trial. Poor legal advice. You may invoke the right to silence. Also, the tests can clear you as well although the SFSTs can’t be done well by most sober people.

      8
      1
    2. The field test demonstrates whether you can pay attention or not.

      And every cop wishes for babbling obnoxious drunks to just shut their mouths, get in the car and go to jail where they belong.

      The way to avoid getting arrested for OWI is to not drink and drive.

      16
      1
    3. Cops are not your friend ? No they are not in this situation, your friends might let you drive drunk, a cop will not. Refusing to take a field sobriety test is an immediate revocation of your license for one year and mandatory IID installation on your vehicle. So correct, you are not required but the consequences are harsh. Wisconsin is an implied consent state, refusing to test can add additional consequences. Refusing can actually be more severe than penalties especially if this is a first time OWI. Stop giving poor advice.

  2. Saw him, his wife and his baby outside their house (2blocks from an harvey elem. so be careful) this weekend…. This man deserves JAIL TIME

    1. Six months may be somewhat misleading. The license is revoked for six months and remains revoked unless and until all conditions for reinstatement are met. Completion of the alcohol assessment and any recommended treatment is one of them.

      1. Sort of. While completion of the assessment is required for the license to be reinstated, he will be referred to either education or treatment, and neither has to be completed before he reinstates his license. Plus he’ll likely get an “occupational license” well before the six month revocation expires. (Sorry! Meant to reply here the first time!)

        1. Drinking and driving is bad….but that whole assessment/education, etc. is a racket, too. Let’s just be honest.

          1. It’s not perfect, and it really only helps those who want help. However, Kenosha does a much better job than other counties due to direct biomarker testing to test for abstinence when it’s ordered.

  3. Sort of. While completion of the assessment is required for the license to be reinstated, he will be referred to either education or treatment, and neither has to be completed before he reinstates his license. Plus he’ll likely get an “occupational license” well before the six month revocation expires.

    1
    1. Correct. His license or permit can be withdrawn, IIRC, for noncompliance with the driver safety plan or failure to maintain SR22 insurance.

  4. This guy is a mess, More and more he is a danger to are society and are children. he needs to go to prison and do some programs and learn how to be a better person,
    this guy thinks he is smarter and better then all and can do whatever he wishes.

    4
    1
  5. four OWIs and just a 6 month revocation of his license? He needs to serve many years in prison for his grooming and he should NEVER get his license back again since he is unable to drive without being under the influence. How disgusting

      1. Unfortunately, in Wisconsin, and
        occupational license allows you to basically drive for any reason. All this without and ignition interlock device because he blew below .15.

        With an occupational license, you may drive:

        to and from work
        to and from school, college or university
        to and from places that you need to visit to maintain your household, “Homemaker duties,” such as:
        grocery store, gas station
        transporting children to and from school or day care
        pharmacy, bank
        laundromat
        dependent/minor child visitation
        to and from your place of worship
        to attend to necessary family needs such as medical appointments
        to the agency where you are completing your Intoxicated Driver Program (IDP) assessment and Driver Safety Plan (DSP)

        1
        1
  6. A FINE is meant to be a form of financial punishment. A FINE looses its sting when on an easy payment plan.
    The Racine County ADA is a complete MORON.

    4
    1
      1. The default standard is 60 days to pay but it can be extended due to a defendant’s financial circumstances. $25/month is on the “indigence” spectrum (and low at that). If he is low income or gets public assistance he is presumed indigent.
