[ale] ALE Opinions...Judge shoots down closed source DUI machines as sufficent DUE Process

[Ned Williams]

Greetings ALE member, Just curious what other members thought of this ?
>From the article
"Manatee County Judge Doug Henderson ruled two years ago that any
Intoxilyzer 5000 tests were inadmissible in trial, but prosecutors appealed.
On Tuesday, Henderson told lawyers that his ruling had been affirmed by the
Second District Court of Appeal and Circuit Court."

I wonder if here in Ga similar defenses will now be brought or perhaps we
might even hear more lazy state attorneys whine that if something like this
is allowed to stand they will have to retry a bazillion cases (see weak
excuse used in Genarlo Wilson Trial)
