As almost all criminal attorneys know, alcohol related crimes generally involve either a driving under the influence allegation or a domestic violence allegation. Not all allegations, however, are DUI or DV based. Just ask Oklahoma Sooner sophomore quarterback Kendal Thompson. Thompson was recently arrested in Norman Oklahoma on suspicion of public intoxication and allegedly refusing to obey a police officer’s orders. Now he is facing the prospect of jail, probation and fines. He is also facing the prospect of being suspended from the team. He’d best be served by immediately retaining an attorney who will work to minimize the impact of what he faces in Oklahoma’s criminal courts.
Like Mr. Thompson, folks in Washington who face an alcohol based criminal charge would best be served by hiring a qualified Seattle criminal attorney to help them with the meanderings of our criminal court system.
