Republican Politician’s DUI Arrest: Video Shows Apparent Pants-Soiling, Failed Sobriety Test
Tennessee Senator Ken Yager was arrested in Georgia and charged with hit and run, failure to stop at a stop sign, and DUI after being involved in a car accident. An incident report indicates he exhibited signs of intoxication, including a .14% BAC and an apparent loss of bladder control, as seen in video footage of field sobriety tests. Yager has issued a statement acknowledging the incident but declining further comment pending legal advice. This arrest comes as Yager maintains a conservative voting record on several controversial social issues in his state.
