Second Offense OUI Against Federal Officer Reduced to First Offense (Cahill) Disposition
Our client is a federal law enforcement officer who has struggled with substance abuse issues for years. A few months ago he was driving his car around 11:00 a.m. He was operating erratically and he sideswiped several cars. The responding officers were wearing body cameras. The footage clearly displayed our client in an impaired state. He was charged with OUI drugs, a second offense under G.L. c. 90 section 24. Because the prior offense was more than one year ago the judge, over the objection of the assistant district attorney agreed with our request that this be treated as a 1st offense. This is often referred to as a Cahill disposition.
