POLICE OFFICER CLEARED OF FOURTH AMENDMENT CLAIMS STEMMING FROM DRUNK DRIVING ARREST

Published: April 02, 2020

Plaintiff was stopped for suspected drunk driving. When he refused a breathalyzer, a search warrant was obtained and he was taken to a hospital for a blood draw. Plaintiff alleged that the officer suspected that he was concealing contraband and instructed hospital staff to conduct a rectal exam, which constituted excessive force and an unlawful search. At trial, the jury returned a verdict in favor of the officer and the hospital defendants. The defendant police officer was represented by McGraw Morris P.C. attorneys G. Gus Morris and Christopher J. Raiti.
