King County DUI Lawyer: No charges against Fife police officer who admitted DUI

King County DUI Lawyer: No charges against Fife police officer who admitted DUI

An administrative review says he broke state DUI laws, but no charges will be filed against a former Fife police officer.

Detective Roy Farnworth crashed his patrol car in December 2010 after he says he drank three to four double vodkas while on-call.

"Generally speaking, you have to not only show that the defendant was intoxicated, but also that he was intoxicated at the time he was driving," explained Pierce County Prosecutor Mark Lindquist.

There isn't evidence to bring a criminal case because police didn't find out about Farnworth until hours later when he called his police chief from home saying, "I can't take it anymore. I quit. I crashed the Mustang. I am drunk, and it is in my driveway with a flat tire."
