In this case, no other cars were involved.  Only the man and his passenger, the woman who was killed, were present.  In DUI accidents more generally, the blame for the accident is almost always laid upon the drunk driver - if any driver in an accident involving more than one vehicle has a BAC of .08 percent or higher, law enforcement will assume that the accident is that driver's fault.

If you find yourself in this position, then you will need a Wilkes-Barre, PA DUI lawyer to fight hard and to prove that you were not at fault for causing the accident.  By proving that you were not at fault, you may have your DUI accident charges reduced to a simple DUI, which will significantly reduce the penalties you face.

If you have been charged with causing a drunk driving accident, then contact a Wilkes-Barre, PA DUI lawyer at Rogan Law for help.

In my lifetime, the public's attitude and the laws regarding drunk driving have changed dramatically.  Unfortunately, not everyone's behavior has changed as a result.

When drunk drivers become involved with accidents that result in injuries or deaths, they face very serious penalties.  If you are arrested for a Schuylkill County DUI, Luzerne County DUI or any northeast PA DUI, then you need a skilled Wilkes-Barre criminal defense attorney to defend you.  This is especially true if you were involved in an accident while driving under the influence.

Oftentimes, individuals arrested for driving under the influence lose hope because they feel there is too much evidence against them, but a good Wilkes-Barre DUI attorney will tell you there are ways of defending against these types of charges, even if breath or blood tests showed your blood alcohol content to be over the legal limit.  The extent of your penalties and the skill of your Wilkes-Barre DUI lawyer are directly correlated, so it is important to choose an attorney with experience and integrity.  A Wilkes-Barre criminal defense lawyer from Rogan Law will fight hard in your defense.  Contact Rogan Law today.

Following the recent, shocking mass murder at a Binghamton, NY immigrant center, the Pocono Record published and article about what triggers such killing sprees.  Experts who were interviewed said mass murderers generally share certain characteristics:

• They experience a major event that makes them both suicidal and vengeful;
• They usually are middle-aged white males - men commit 93% of violent crimes;
• They usually are angry at a person, group or place and target the people or places they blame for their anger (though some do kill randomly);
• They usually have no criminal record; and
• They usually have no record of psychiatric treatment.
