One Tennessee law would make suspicion of opioid impairment sufficient to establish evidence of driving under the influence. In August 2023, Ben Kredich was struck and killed when a vehicle swerved off the road. The driver, Shannon Walker, had apparently passed out behind the wheel while under the influence of opioids; in April, a grand jury indicted Walker on charges including vehicular homicide, driving under the influence, and possession of controlled subst...

Can state police track drivers everywhere they go via hundreds of license plate cameras? A new lawsuit says that Illinois' widespread use of such cameras—called automatic license plate readers (ALPRs)—violates the Fourth Amendment's prohibition against unreasonable searches because it breaches citizens' reasonable expectations of privacy. The complaint—filed by two residents of Cook County, Stephanie Scholl and Frank Bednarz, in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois on May 30—names the Illinois State Police (ISP), ISP Director Brendan F.

The topsy-turvy legal odyssey concerning a Michigan man's driving privileges, which has captivated the nation, took another turn yesterday when he reappeared in court not long after a video showed him behind the wheel of a car while he Zoomed into a hearing that was allegedly for driving with a suspended license charge.

A Michigan man swept the internet last week after a viral video showed him attending a court hearing via Zoom after he appeared to park his car. That quickly became a national story. Should it have been? The footage, which first made the rounds on social media, showed Corey Harris calling into a hearing before Judge J. Cedric Simpson of the Washtenaw County District Court. "I'm looking at his record. He doesn't have a license," Simpson says about a minute into the hearing. "He's suspended and he's just driving….I don't even know why he would do that." Harris' bond was promptly revoked and he w...

Those who follow professional golf may have been confused by the recent criminal charges filed against Scottie Scheffler, who apart from his prodigious talent is known for being a wholesome, devout figure. There's at least one more reason, however, to be confused by the charges, which is that, based on the limited evidence, they appear to be totally disproportionate to what happened. On May 17, Scheffler was arrested and charged with second-degree assault on a police officer, third-degree criminal mischief, reckless driving, and disregarding signals from officers directing traffic after a cop ...
