Former Sheriff sentenced to 15 days in DUI case
San Diego DUI lawyer news
A former San Joaquin County sheriff has been sentenced to spend 15 days in jail after pleading no contest to a California DUI / drunk driving charge.
T. Baxter Dunn was arrested for California DUI in November after rear-ending a truck and later failing a sobriety test.
That was just the latest legal trouble for Dunn, who resigned as sheriff amid a public corruption scandal three years ago.
In 2005, he was sentenced to six months in prison for secretly investing in a company that wanted to build a power plant at the Port of Stockton.
This time, a California DUI judge says Dunn is eligible to perform community service rather than serve his jail time.
