What are some defense strategies against scientific evidence brought by the prosecution in a Florida DUI case?
Answer: The prosecution themselves—the prosecutors, the lawyers in court—they don’t really understand it. What they’re introducing into evidence is a chemical result, in a DUI case, of alcohol level, or a presence of a drug, or drugs, if the defendant tested positive for drugs. That’s what they’re admitting into evidence. The science behind that is going to be their witness, and they’re the ones actually doing the explanation. The type of evidence that they’re doing is usually a blood test, a urine test, it could be a DNA test if it’s a DNA case, you know, all different kinds of science is going to be used.
