A man from Northern Arizona now faces a long list of criminal charges. Some of these charges include: endangerment, DUI with a blood-alcohol content of .20 percent or higher, driving on a suspended license, aggravated DUI with person under 15 in the vehicle, and possession of a prohibited weapon.
Larry Robison will now need an Arizona DUI attorney to defend himself against charges. But what exactly led up to this man's arrest and why is he in so much trouble with the law?
ABC News reports that the Yavapai County Sheriff's Office received a call last week from a motorist who saw the 48-year-old driving erratically and reported that he saw the man pull into a driveway. Deputies then contacted the driver who reported the incident. After they spoke with the driver, they then interrogated the suspect outside of the home.
It looks as though Larry Robison just couldn't keep his quiet. The man admitted to police that he had just been driving with his three-year-old son in the vehicle. The deputies found a loaded .22 caliber revolver tucked inside the man's waistband, and a .45 caliber weapon on a nightstand in Robison's bedroom. They also found an illegal sawed off shotgun.
However, a DUI attorney may question how authorities went about searching the man's home. For more information about criminal rights regarding search and seizures, visit FindLaw's section on search warrants.
The child's mother then arrived at the home to take custody of the couple's son before the suspect was arrested. Once the deputies were able to detain the suspect, the man submitted to a breath alcohol test. The test resulted in a reading of .30 blood-alcohol concentration. That's over three times the legal limit!
While the actions of this particular suspect seem to be reprehensible, it is important to note that everyone is entitled to their rights when it comes to searches and seizures. If you have specific questions about your rights and the law, it may be wise to consult with an Arizona DUI attorney.
