From Hunch to Handcuffs: The Drug Recognition “Expert”

What if you could be arrested for DUI… without having anything to drink, or taking any unlawful substances? Imagine your license, and your very freedom, depending on the “expert” opinion of a police officer who went through a 9-day course to determine (“scientifically”) whether or not you were impaired by drugs. I’m Del Caraway, a public defender and criminal defense attorney - and I’ve seen first-hand how this system can go wrong. In this episode, I’m breaking down the world of Drug Recognition “Experts” (DREs): what they are, how they are trained, and what happens when they get it wrong. Featuring: 🔬 Dr. Anna Mattle, Pharm.D., who walks us through the real pharmacology behind medication, impairment, and what DREs often miss. 👮‍♂️ John Sandle, retired DRE and expert witness, who explains what kind of training DRE’s are given, and what officers are actually taught (including a few head scratchers). Together, we’ll explore: • What a DRE is (and isn’t) • How the program was created • What the 12-step process looks like • The very real dangers of wrongful arrest • How we can keep roads safe without compromising justice. This isn’t about mocking DRE officers. It’s about building better tools, protecting innocent people, and making sure no one ends up in handcuffs just because they took their medication. 💬 If you’ve ever been evaluated by a DRE or work in this field, drop your experience in the comments. Let’s have a real conversation about science, safety, and due process. 👍 Like, 💬 comment, and 🔔 subscribe for more legal deep-dives, courtroom insights, and ADHD-fueled honesty. — Del Caraway Attorney | Public Defender | Advocate #DrugRecognitionExpert #DRE #WrongfulArrest #DelCaraway #CriminalJusticeReform #Pharmacology #mentalheathawareness #LegalEducation #PublicDefender #ScienceNotSpeculation #DUI #ADHDAttorney #FieldSobrietyTests #JusticeMatters #ForensicFlaws
