9 months jail for 10 DUI arrests
San Diego DUI lawyers
Maine officials say a Clinton man who was convicted last week of DUI/drunk driving has the dubious distinction of being the state's worst DUI/OUI offender.
Fifty-seven-year-old Daniel Dumont was convicted in Waterville District Court for being DUI-drunk when he was stopped at a police roadblock in Oakland last September.
District Attorney Evert Fowle says Dumont has been convicted 10 times since 1972 for DUI/drunken driving.
A DUI spokesman for the Secretary of State's office says nobody else has as many as 10 DUI/OUIs on their record at any given time going back to 1991, before which time DUI records are incomplete.
Dumont was ordered to spend nine months in jail followed by a year of DUI probation. He will lose his license for 18 months.
Fowle says although Dumont has a long DUI record going back 36 years, he has been convicted only twice in the past ten years, making his latest DUI offense a misdemeanor.
