I was arrested for a 3rd Dui recently. I had my bond reduced on condition that I where the scram monitor. My other two DUi's were almost 20 years ago. My BAL was .16 but I had pulled to stopped the car, lock the doors with the windows up and kept the car running(due to the fl heat),once I realized I was too impaired to drive. I took a nap since I could not go anywhere safely. When the police woke me up, they arrested me for DUI since the keys were in the ignition. What sentence could I be facing?

You actually may be able to do a motion to suppress the stop which will allow you to get the charge dismissed. It's very fact specific so you should talk to an attorney to see what your best options are. However, you face up to a year in jail, fine in the thousands (it varies by jurisdiction), license suspension, impoundment, ignition interlock, among many other things.
