Dwight Gooden’s Second DUI this summer

In July of 2019, former major league star pitcher, Dwight Gooden was arrested for DUI in New Jersey.

 

Gooden was stopped for driving the wrong way on a one way street.

Gooden was arrested earlier this summer for DUI involving cocaine.

 

According to police, Gooden was extremely impaired when stopped; he apparently urinated on himself.

Gooden explained to police that he was diabetic.  Being Diabetic with an extremely low or high blood sugar can mimic being impaired by alcohol or drugs.

The source added that Gooden told cops at the scene that he was diabetic. It’s unclear if he actually is, although his late father was diabetic.

Former Supermodel Stephanie Seymour Busted For DUI:  In January, 2016 Seymour was arrested for DUI in Greenwich, Connecticut.  According to the police report, Seymour was stopped at a stop sign preparing to enter Interstate 95.  However, for some unknown reason, Seymour did not go forward but instead backed down the off ramp into the vehicle behind hers.  No one was injured but the police were summonsed.  According to police, Seymour exhibited impairment cues during the interview phase by failing to promptly provide her license, registration and insurance.  The report indicates that after six or seven requests, Seymour finally presented her driver’s license and a credit card.  The police also reported a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage on her breath.  Seymour wisely refused the roadside gymnastics which normal people over the age of 30 never pass.  #FormerSupermodelStephanieSeymourBustedForDUI

Prosecutor drops DWI against Actor Sam Shepard

Prosecutor drops DWI against Actor Sam Shepard

Prosecutor drops DWI against Actor Sam Shepard:  Samuel Shepard Rogers III was born on November 5, 1943.  Sam Shepard is a playwright, actor, author, screenwriter and director and has been so for more that 50 years.  Shepard has written 44 plays along with short stories and essays.  Shepard was awarded the Pulitizer Prize For Drama in 1979 for the play Buried Child.  He was nominated as Best Actor in the Academy Awards for his work as Chuck Yeager in The Right Stuff in 1983.  Shepard has been called the Greatest American Playwright of his generation.

 

Prosecutor drops DWI against Actor Sam Shepard: In May of 2015 Shepard was arrested and charged for aggravated DWI.  In December, 2015 that charge was dropped by the Santa Fe Prosecutor’s office.  The prosecution alleged that it was very unlikely that Shepard would be convicted of aggravated drunk driving given the evidence.  Shepard was initially stopped when a customer at the La Choza Restaurant called police after seeing Shepard fail to disengage his parking brake.  Because Shepard had consumed alcohol in the restaurant and had not left the parking lot he did not have to take a breath or blood test.  The evidence would have been that Shepard consumed one and a half margaritas and a sip of mezcal.  The Defense expert would have testified that such a drinking history would put Shepard’s blood alcohol level below 0.01 grams per 210 Liters of breath.  That is significantly less than the legal limit of 0.08 grams per 210 Liters of breath.  According to the Defense expert Shepard’s blood alcohol level would have been 0.05 grams per 210 liters of breath if he had consumed two full margaritas and a full shot of mezcal — an amount still under the legal limit.

 Prosecutor drops DWI against Actor Sam Shepard: The then 71 year old Shepard was not a candidate for the standardized field sobriety testing since the cutoff is 65 years of age.  If he attempted the standardized tests the officers would not have been able to distinguish the effects of his age versus the effects of alcohol.
