Legal Question in Criminal Law in Mississippi
I was recently charged with dui. I was going 16 over and I saw the cops lights turn on. when I pulled over he said he saw me throwing a joint out the window. he searched me and my car and even the trunk which I believe is illegal without my consent and he didn't find any incriminating evidence. the only test he ran was the eye test which I believe I passed based on his reaction. he also broke my watch which I had just bought and was on my way back from getting. is this case possible to beat and what would you do to beat it?

You need an attorney. Plain and simple. I am assuming you are charged with common law dui or dui other. Please not the penalties have changed under the new law.
You need to sit with an attorney that does DUI work to be able to evaluate defenses, probable cause, as well as weigh your options under the new law. I take these matters statewide and offer a free initial consultation
