Answer From DUI Attorney Justin Hunt
First, stop posting facts of the case online. Second, your husband will probably need to hire a DWI attorney. At this point, the government has already started two different actions against your husband: a criminal action for the DWI/ hit and run, and a license revocation for testing over .08. These are 2 separate issues that you will need to fight.
My first thought is I would try to fight the case by pointing out that the officers didn’t actually see him driving and that it would be difficult to determine his blood-alcohol when he was actually behind the wheel. However, this is just speculation. You will need to hire a DWI attorney to investigate further.
