người đàn ông ở bắc California được tòa tuyên vô tội vì tự bào chữa: thà say rượu lái xe còn hơn đối mặt với "hai người đàn bà giận dữ" (ngoại tình bị vợ bắt quả tang)...
-----
A Northern California jury found a Ukiah man not guilty of driving under the influence after deciding his actions were justified after he was caught cheating on his wife, which made his driving “necessary to allow him to escape two angry women,”
Thomas Patrick Houston, 60, was charged with a DUI, with a blood alcohol level of .08 or greater, It was not immediately known when he was arrested or if any injuries were reported.
Defense attorneys argued that Houston driving under the influence of alcohol was “an act of necessity, thus justified under the law.”
whenever a trial judge allows a necessity defense, the defendant (bị đơn) must prove that they acted in an emergency (khẩn cấp) to prevent bodily harm to themselves or others; their driving did not create “a greater danger (nguy hiểm) than the one avoided” and that they had no other choice (không còn cách nào khác) but to drive under the influence.
