9 DUIs!
Robert Kent Vandyke, was sentenced to prison today for his ninth (yes, 9!) DUI conviction. Robert was considered guilty in 2000 for killing a woman in a driving accident, and after he finished his parole he was found driving under the influence.
Robert’s lawyer asked the jury to set aside the jury verdict. He argued there wasn’t enough evidence to prove that Vandyke was unsafe to drive when he was arrested.
The driver refused to take the sobriety tests at the time of the arrest, so it was not possible to determine the alcohol levels on his blood.
Vandyke’s request was obviously denied and he was sentenced to the maximum penalty: 5 years in prison.
