A technicality about blood alcohol content (BAC) measurement on breathalyzer units will render such data inadmissible in court following a ruling by a four-judge panel in Kitsap County, Washington. KVI's John Carlson interviews Fox 13 reporter, Matt Markovich, about the ruling that will invalidate 7 years worth of DUI cases in Kitsap County and how it will eventually torpedo cases all across Washington that involved the Drager breathalyzer units. The judges ruled that the hand-held BAC testers don't round BAC levels down to three decimal points which is stipulated in Washington law. Software for the Drager units provides 7 decimal points of measurement while state law says the BAC reading should be rounded to 3 decimal points. That simple conflict, according to the judges, makes BAC levels on cases from the last 7 years inadmissible as evidence at trial.

Washington Gov. Jay Inslee has indicated he supports tearing down Snake River dams, according to KVI interview guest, Todd Myers, the environmental policy director at the Washington Policy Center. KVI's John Carlson interviews Myers about Inslee's likelihood of supporting hydro-electric dam removal which would reduce the state's electricity grid by 8%. The irony of Inslee's policy straddle is that he's pushing for more electrification of Washington energy as he simultaneously pushing for reduction of fossil fuels--like natural gas--which can be used to heat Washington homes and businesses. This conflict with the hydro-electric dams puts Inslee on a collision course for drastically increasing the costs to power and heat Washington homes and businesses.
