Client was arrested as a passenger in a vehicle which was stopped for speeding.  The police did an OWI investigation of the driver and when they located evidence in plain view (THC) they searched the vehicle.  The defendant was alleged to have been impaired and was carrying a firearm on her person.  The police also found a small amount of THC on her person as well.

The way we were able to get the evidence suppressed dealt with the unlawful blood draw of the client.  The client did not initially consent to the blood draw, that was until the officer told her that he would take her to the station and get one without her permission.  The client then consented to the draw.  The problem was, the officer threatened her, thereby making her consent involuntary.  We filed the motion on the unlawful draw and the prosecution conceded the motion and dismissed the criminal charge without a hearing.  The prosecution then amended the THC charge to an ordinance violation.  Avoiding the criminal conviction made the client extremely happy.
