The officer then conducted breath tests, which showed blood alcohol levels of 0.119 and 0.120, the report said. The legal limit for blood alcohol level when driving in Idaho is 0.08.
The officer took Few to Kootenai Health in Coeur d'Alene after Few requested that an independent blood draw be done. The officer was later instructed by supervisors to release Few from custody and issue him a citation at the hospital, according to the report.
"While at the hospital, I was directed by my supervisors to release Mark from custody and issue a citation," said Coeur d'Alene officer Matthew Lovingier in the report. "I took Mark out of handcuffs and issued him a citation for driving under the influence."
At .119, .120 you and I would have gone to jail for sure and for certain.
