Hide the Beer, the Officer is Here

A recently elected St. Clair County Circuit judge, Patrick Young, was arrested for drunk driving as he was headed home in his GMC Yukon from a St. Louis Rams football game. His passenger was his boss, Chief Judge Jan Fiss. Fiss was spotted by an officer pouring out an open Bud Light beer can on the road and trying to hide it in his coat.

Judge Young refused a Breathalyzer test. It seems the lack of evidence of a person's blood alcohol level makes prosecution difficult. Who knew?

Can they find a sober judge for the trial?
