What are the three standard field sobriety tests?
If you're pulled over in North Carolina, a breath test can tell police if you are under the influence or not. However, before using one, the police may turn to standard field sobriety tests. There are three main ones, which are as follows:
Raleigh man arrested for sex crimes involving a child
An arrest and possible conviction on any kind of sex offense deals a devastating blow to the defendant's life. Sex offense accusations involving children increase the stakes even more, further threatening the defendant's reputation and freedom. State police officials and prosecutors typically launch aggressive campaigns against those accused of such crimes with an end goal of putting the defendants behind bars.
