Dukes Banchero

[Cuse House]

.08 is typically “let’s get you a ride.” My guess is if he did a roadside test, he was higher. There is time in between when someone is arrested and they blow at the station. There is a 20 minute observation period, before someone is even allowed to give a sample on an instrument so BACs can go up or down from the roadside depending on when they had their last drink/drinks. It gets tricky with anyone under 21 because of zero tolerance laws. There is no aiding and abetting DWI law in NY for DWI.

Springfield, hmmm? Not sure if I trust that data.

Was this the arresting officer?

I’m not saying it.

The answer obviously is to gain weight.

If the cops suspected they switched driver/passenger after pulling them over, but couldn't prove it, they could arrest them both for drunk driving (or accessory) just to make life harder on then.

Dealing with a criminal matter is a big hassle even if the charges get dismissed quickly.

Or maybe they just do that if both are underage.

Or maybe they just do that if both are underage.

Perhaps just as obvious. Thanks Occum! Sometimes the laws in different states are like going to another country.

"You ain't from around here, are you boy?"

Just suspend him for the SU game.

Unless the cop was a UNC guy...

It did happen in Orange County home to Chapel Hill. They weren't going to let the Dukies off with a warning : ) . K's grandson is also the walk-on who tested positive for COVID and ended their ACC tourney last year.

This happened like 15 minutes from my house, they were in the middle of nowhere... Very odd place for two college kids to be going through at that hour, or ever... Party out in the woods maybe?

If he was sober and let someone who was drinking drive his car he was wrong or if they were both drinking and he let someone drive his or their own car he was wrong.

Not saying they kid deserves jail time but I’m not sure how it can be twisted into him being a victim haha

Maybe he’s an idiot ?

Seems like some murky stuff. You have to encourage the person in some way .. verbal or non verbal .. him merely driving your car isn’t enough .. a decent lawyer gets him out of this

▪ In 1947, the N.C. Supreme Court stated in State v. Gibbs that “when an owner places his motor vehicle in the hands of an intoxicated driver, sits by his side and permits him, without protest, to operate the vehicle on a public highway, while in a state of intoxication, he is as guilty as the man at the wheel.”

Giving him the keys was the non verbal aiding.

He’s probably suspended until the first TV timeout.

LOOK HE ALREADY PAID FOR HIS SIN ISNT THAT ENOUGH FOR THIS BOY WHO JUST WANTS TO FOLLOW HIS DREAM OF PLAYING BASKETBALL LET YOU WHO HATH NOT SINNED CAST THE FIRST ARROW

 

[jgeorge322]

I don’t get why Banchero would have the other kid drive his car after drinking if Banchero had not been drinking.

yea not buying that... but a college kid drinking, i could care less; now driving, thats not good

 

[Briancuse]

Im all for strict DUI.laws but charging the passenger is just silly.

“He’s a good kid”

Buddy Boeheim suspended 5 games to teach Duke a lesson.

It’s not silly when it’s the passengers car and he gave the driver the keys.

Maybe he was too gone to drive and thought the other kid was ok t drive. Not saying it's smart but he shouldn't be charged with a DUI.
