New DUI Decision from the CCA

The Court of Criminal Appeals has affirmed the DUI 3rd offense conviction of a defendant in Madison County. At trial he claimed his buddy must have been the driver.
The defendant, Dennis Wayne Brewer, was found sleeping in his pick up truck that was laying on it's side in a ditch. Brewer was alone and never indicated any one else had been in or near the scene of the crash. Brewer had a blood alcohol level of .23.
At trial Brewer testified that his buddy must have been driving and came up with theories of why that must have been the case. The jury did not buy the theories or the defense. The Court of Criminal Appeals affirmed the conviction. The prosecutor in the case was Anna Cash.
