"FARMINGTON, N.M. -- People can be prosecuted on drunken driving charges with a blood-alcohol content below the state's presumed level of intoxication of 0.08 percent.
(((((((((That's the word from Farmington police and District Attorney Lyndy Bennett))))))))

((((((Bennett says)))))) people can be prosecuted if they're impaired to the point they can't drive.

(((((She says)))))) the blood-alcohol content is not an absolute.

Farmington attorney Victor Titus was arrested this week on a charge of drunken driving after registering a blood-alcohol level of 0.02.

The ((((((officer says))))) he arrested Titus because the results of a breath test were not consistent with what he described as "observed impairment."

I use (((( ))))) to 'explain' it with the little information provided here. Was this man on some medication that reacted with alcohol? Any more information? How was he driving? Was he convicted? What is New mexico's law?

You take issue with the VAST numbers you are shown from multiple sources..and you cite a po dunk town and an article that has less information than most people's profiles.

I am not saying it didn't happen or that it is proper, but you offer a one sided article that he is mostly He said She said.
