Defense Strategy: Super Extreme DUI
ALERT: Standard Patrol
Arrests in Peoria are currently under high scrutiny.
If you are reading this, you are facing the full weight of the Maricopa County legal system. An arrest for Super Extreme DUI by the Peoria PD is designed to shock and intimidate you.
Super Extreme DUI: The Peoria Reality
A Super Extreme DUI (BAC .20+) is the most serious misdemeanor charge you can face. In Peoria, prosecutors take these cases very seriously, often seeking the full 45 days in jail, thousands in fines, and an 18-month interlock requirement. They rely heavily on the high BAC number to secure a conviction. We do not let a number dictate your future. We attack the science behind that number.
The Blood Test Audit
In Super Extreme cases, Peoria PD almost always relies on a blood draw. We demand the "Gas Chromatography" data from the crime lab. We look for signs of contamination, improper seals, or fermentation. If your blood sample was stored improperly (e.g., in a hot patrol car or a non-refrigerated drop box) before being tested, the sugar in your blood can ferment into alcohol, creating a falsely high reading. We expose these lab errors to the judge.
The "Disconnect" Defense
To have a .20+ BAC, the average person would be unable to stand or speak clearly. Yet, on the officer's bodycam, our clients often appear polite, steady, and coherent. We use this "Cognitive Disconnect" to argue that the chemical test is clearly malfunctioning because it contradicts the physical evidence. Juries believe their eyes over a machine. If you looked fine but tested high, the test is the outlier.
Your Career is at Stake
A Super Extreme conviction can be a career-ender for pilots, nurses, and commercial drivers. We specialize in "Damage Control"—negotiating resolutions that minimize the visibility of the charge and protect your professional standing. Do not face this judge without a team that understands the high stakes.
