Nevada Man sentenced to prison for third alcohol DUI
NEVADA - Saying he didn't believe a Gardnerville, Nevada man who claimed he would succeed under a special program, District Judge Michael Gibbons sentenced Robin Miles, 49, to 1-3 years in Nevada State Prison for felony driving under the influence of alcohol.
His most recent arrest was in front of his son's home after he had been drinking alcohol in Gardnerville Nevada.
Young said Miles had a .28 blood alcohol content at that point.
Miles' attorney Tod Young argued that under the DUI diversion program, his client would be supervised for years to come.
“He's diabetic who stands a chance of killing himself if he continues to drink,” Young said. “If he goes into the program he will be supervised for up to five years. If he goes to prison, he won't have the same supervision.”
Gibbons pointed out that Miles, who was arrested for his third DUI on April 21, had violated house arrest and a court order not to drink. On one occasion, Miles failed to attend a court hearing because he had been drinking.
“An objective reading shows Mr. Miles is not a good candidate for diversion,” Gibbons said. “Put that together with the fact that he can't follow a court order, or even his own health. Mr. Miles, I don't trust you to do what your supposed to.”
Gibbons said sending Miles to prison would require him to spend at least a year sober.

Alcohol Treatment Centers by City in Nevada Listed Alphabetically: | | Quick Drug Facts |
Alcoholism is a family issue, because it impacts the entire family, not just the alcoholic.
|
But not everyone benefitted. By the time Prohibition was repealed, nearly 800 gangsters in the City of Chicago alone had been killed in bootleg-related shootings. And, of course, thousands of citizens were killed, blinded, or paralyzed as a result of drinking contaminated bootleg alcohol.
|
The average alcohol content of wine sold in the United States fell from 16.75 percent in 1950 to 10.49 percent in 1991 before rebounding slightly to 11.45 in 2002.
|
During the colonial times, alcohol consumption was quite common with men and women. It was a custom to pause for drinks several times a day.
