Tampa DUI to Videotape or Not to Videotape
Not all Tampa DUI stops are videotaped. However where there is a Violation of mandatory videotaping policy, one court ruled that dismissal of a DUI charge was appropriate where the cops failed to adhere to mandatory videotaping policy. An appeals court ruled that where the court records showed that the deputy had previously stated that he ''chose not to'' record certain traffic stops and if the DUI videotaping policy was not optional and the state could not produce satisfactory reason for not videotaping defendant's stop, the DUI should be dismissed.When law enforcement conveniently fails to collect video evidence of an arrest, Board Certified Criminal Trial Lawyer, W.F. ''Casey'' Ebsary, Jr. can help the Court get a true picture of what really happened. Call Toll Free 1-877-793-9290.
