Judge Victoria Shackelford: Waivers, DUI Suppression Fight, and Competency Review

This Wayne County session with Judge Victoria Shackelford moved from quick waivers to technical DUI litigation before closing with mental health proceedings. Robert Cruz and David Lawry waived their preliminary exams, sending their cases downtown for circuit court. The spotlight then turned to Trooper Cole’s testimony in the Dudley OWI case, where defense counsel grilled him on every aspect of field sobriety training—stimulus distance, vertical gaze checks, and even obscure forms of nystagmus. With Dudley injured and bandaged at the time, the officer’s shaky recall raised credibility issues. The breathalyzer evidence was also contested: an initial .07 result, a later .16 reading, and an RFI error tied to radio interference—plus missing breath test tickets and the statutory requirement for a second valid test. Judge Shackelford noted the rules but left admissibility for later. The docket closed with Ian Hades, deemed incompetent but restorable; both sides stipulated to continued treatment at the forensic center with a 60-day review set. Calm and meticulous, the judge balanced legal precision with care for due process. #courthearing #JudgeShackelforD #duit #OWICase #FieldSobrietyTest #BreathalyzerDispute #NystagmusTest #competencyhearing #IanHades #courtroommoment
