Dirty DUI's

This is awful. I guess the old adage about "if it sounds too good to be true" really applies to these cases.

In my experience, ex wives or soon to be ex wives are a nasty lot.

How many ex-wives do you have?



Slice it. or dice it anyway you want, but the guys imbibed, and then got behind the wheel drunk of their own free will. It appears that the PI is the nasty one in this saga of woe.

So what will come of the lawyers that hired him?
Makes for a lot of potential in appeals and renegotiating divorce terms.

A quick google search turns up some nasty shite: LINK

Private Detective Accused of Setting Up Divorcing Men for DUIs with Help of Alluring Women

A former police officer turned private detective has been accused of setting up divorcing men for drunken driving arrests with the help of alluring women who pretended to have a romantic interest in their targets.

The private detective, Christopher Butler, has also been accused in a federal indictment of selling drugs for police and helping cops open and operate a brothel, the Los Angeles Times reports. His alleged crimes involved California police departments in San Ramon and Danville and a state narcotics task force.

The newspaper profiles one of the men who was set up. David Dutcher, a rocket engineer, met a woman known as Sharon on Match.com a few months after he separated from his wife. Sharon was blonde and beautiful, Dutcher recalled, and appeared eager for an eventual sexual encounter. On their second date, Sharon asked Dutcher to meet a friend celebrating a real estate deal at a restaurant. The friend was downing tequila shots and asked Dutcher to help finish them. Next the women asked Dutcher to join them at a home with a hot tub. On the way there, Dutcher was arrested for drunken driving.

The allegations of DUI set-ups came to light after a former Butler employee said the stings were engineered for divorcing wives and their lawyers. Sharon, it turns out, was a former Las Vegas showgirl employed by Butler’s detective agency.

Dutcher’s estranged wife, Susan Dutcher, said in a sworn declaration that her lawyer’s paralegal suggested she hire Butler to obtain evidence that her husband drove while drinking. She said she did not authorize his arrest, however. Susan Dutcher’s lawyer at the time, Mary Nolan, denied having anything to do with the hiring of Butler.

David Dutcher has since had his DUI conviction expunged with the help of prosecutors.

Don't drive drunk.
It's not rocket science.

Entrapment

It gives them a good argument to plea bargain their criminal case and a good round of ammo in divorce court though.

Somebodies PI license isn't going to last.

I missed the part where the guy was knocked unconscious, tied up, had alcohol forced down his throat against his will, and then told to follow the bimbo's or his beloved pet hamster would be killed...or did I...

Don't mess with chicks online. Definitely don't meet with them if you do mess with them online. We all know what these guys were thinking with, and it wasn't their brains. This is in line with one of our older SF brethren who is now in jail for a similar online meeting situation.

I definitely do not agree with them drinking and driving, but these guys got the royal hosing from their ex-wives.
