Cop saw client commit 3 lanes violations. Report stated he had a blank stare, constricted pupils, a reddish, flushed face and his speech and actions were slow and lethargic. He admitted to taking drugs and his hands were shaking. He was unsteady on his feet, walked as if in slow motion and displayed eyelid and body tremors while swaying back and forth. When officer was "unavailable" at trial, we submitted a motion to dismiss for failure to prosecute. Judge allowed it.
