Arizona DUI Defense: The Law and Practice

bit.ly — Richard Gaxiola, Arizona criminal defense lawyer, speaks to the outrageous behavior of the Casa Grande officer in fabricating evidence in DUI cases. The Casa Grande Police Officer, Bret Christofferson, reportedly could not find a report so he reset the date on the breathalyzer [Intoxilyzer ] unit to recreate the missing report. Unfortunately, that calls into credibility all his reports and any possible arrests or sentences related to this breathalyzer unit. Law enforcement has an obligation and a responsibility to present evidence that is candid, that is accurate and that can be evaluated by a criminal defense attorney. When such falsification of critical evidence occurs it wreaks havoc on the integrity of the criminal justice system. If you or someone you know may be adversely affected by the falsified breathalyzer reports from a DUI offense issued in Casa Grande, please call our office for a free consultation today at 602-717-0631 or visit www.criminallawaz.com
