Judge Questions EVERYTHING in This SHOCKING DWI Case! #courtroomdrama

This is a highly scrutinized probable cause hearing before Judge Fleischer for a defendant, Mr. Keys, charged with Driving While Intoxicated (DWI).

- The Allegations: Officers were dispatched for a major crash. A witness reported seeing Mr. Keys' vehicle strike an unknown person riding a bicycle. According to the report, Mr. Keys then got out of his vehicle and began assaulting the person before driving away from the scene. Officers located Mr. Keys one block away in a private driveway that was not his residence. Upon contact, the officer noted an odor of alcohol, slurred speech, and poor balance. Mr. Keys refused field sobriety tests and a breath/blood specimen, leading to a blood search warrant being executed.

- The Judge's Scrutiny: Judge Fleischer immediately expressed "so many problems" with the case. The prosecutor admitted they were unable to locate the person on the bicycle, who fled the scene after the alleged assault. The judge seized on a critical legal flaw: How can the state establish that the defendant consumed alcohol before driving, especially since he was found in a private driveway a block away? The judge asked, "How do I know he's not consuming anything after the fact? How do we know he doesn't go home and chug a fifth of vodka?"

- The Ruling: Given the missing victim, the lack of certainty about when the alcohol was consumed, and the potential for a large time gap, Judge Fleischer found no probable cause for the DWI charge and dismissed the case.

- The Judge's Warning: As the defendant was leaving, the judge gave him a stern, emotional warning: "We have enough death... enough blood all over our streets. Please don't add to it. Please just don't kill someone. That's all I'm asking you to do, man. Forty bucks an Uber will take you anywhere you want to go in this County. Please don't kill someone."
