July 1997 - Did They Really Say That?
From John T. McCully of Dallas, this excerpt from the examination of a police officer in a DWI case:

Q. At the time the defendant stepped out of the car ... did you have any idea that this may be a driving while intoxication investigation?

A. No. I thought it was just an accident.

Q. At what point did you make that determination that you may have a driving while intoxication investigation?

A. It took him, you know, a full minute to get his driver's license out of his wallet. And plus at the same time, I smelled a strong odor of alcoholic beverage.

Q. After you smelled the alcohol and the driver's license, what did you do then, officer?
