My beginning research on the forcible blood draws for suspected DUI/DWI gives me the following information:
It hasn't really crossed the border [you know, that big river in the center of the continent?] except in the cases of Arizona [they've always been death on DUI], Texas [that's a surprise!] and, of course, California. It is widely used in Tennessee, Florida and New York.

Several jurisdictions have found it to be an unreasonable search and seizure, so the police have to have a warrant. A judge will usually be on call [sometimes in the back of the police car]. Victims are not always taken to a hospital, but often are.

There are a couple of grisly stories about people having their blood drawn in the back seat of a police car [lighting source? maglite] of on the hood of the police car [lighting source? headlights of another car]. I don't know if these are true or not.

It's a hard time of year to get information on this, as sheriffs are sometimes up for re-election and I hate to waste my time asking someone if he will allow it in his jurisdiction if he then goes on to lose the election.

I do intend to ask both candidates in the Adams county, Colorado election. Their phone numbers are published by their parties, so it's OK to use them to ask a question, right?

I would like to expand my research after the election, and ask the question of sitting sheriffs. Note to self: when do they take office?

I am also contacting INFOWARS and seeing if there's anything left of the Tyranny Response Team, a fun organization if there ever was one!

Thoughts?
