Unfortunate Suicide Defense in DUI case

DUI defense attorneys unfortunately have a complete defense here: death certificate.

A motorcyclist stopped for suspected DUI / DWI / drunk driving in Kentucky died of a self-inflicted gun shot wound just before 6 a.m. today, according to DUI criminal lawyers.

After Morganfield police stopping the motorcyclist on U.S. 60-West near State Route 3393, officer Chris Toman determined the man was under the influence of alcohol and advised the man he was under arrest for DUI, according to DUI criminal defense attorneys.

The man then turned and spoke to a female passenger of his bike, stepped away from her and from officers and produced a handgun. He fired one fatal shot to his head.

The identities of the man and his female passenger are not being released pending family notifications.
