My son was arrested on March 11th for DUI I can’t find an help do you know anybody that can help? I don’t have money.

The police had my son do a sobriety test my son failed as he asked “how did you want me to turn around” and things like that. He was nervous and wanted to do it right. My son took the breathalyzer as he knew he was not under the influence of anything. That was 0.00. The police wanted him to do a urine test, they asked him if he has done pot in the past he said yes, and they told him that the urine test was time specific, and they were only looking for the last two hours. I am afraid that the police were lying to him. My son told me it does not matter; he was not under the influence of anything

If your son was arrested for driving under the influence of a controlled substance on March 11, 2012, I recommend that he immediately consult with a criminal defense attorney about the situation. If he cannot afford a private criminal defense attorney, I suggest that he go down to the public defender's office and see if he qualifies for a public defender.

Possibly contacting your county bar association will assist in a possible pro bono defense by an attorney willing to assist in the defense of your son.
