A recent case from the Court of Criminal Appeals involved a vehicular homicide in which a non-consensual blood test was conducted. The mandatory test was approved following the precedents of Schmember v California and Tennessee v Jordan.
Outstanding work in this case was performed by ADA Bob Gray in McNairy County and Lt. Tony Miller of the Selmer Police Department. Thanks also to paramedic Jeffrey Strickland for performing the blood draw in this case.
All the effort in the world won't bring back Steven Lawson, who was killed by this impaired driver. He and all the victims of impaired driving should recieve this kind of effort.
