Placer County You don't have to Worry if You didn't do Anything Wrong Roseville, California

I have always raised my children to believe that they have nothing to worry about if they did nothing wrong.  On November 6th, 2013, Placer County made me out to be a liar.  On this day, a jury, not of his peers, but a jury found my eldest son to be guilty of driving under the influence of alcohol.  I know this to be a wrongful conviction and I know what you are thinking, I'm the mom and of course I am going to say that.  It is true that I'm the mom, but, another fact that I know to be true is that my son does not drive, has never driven, has never had a car registered to him.  How was he charged with a DUI, you ask?  Well, there was an accident involved, and the actual driver of the vehicle was thrown as the car was rolling down an embankment.  My son ended up inn the drivers seat and that is where the CHP investigator and witness for the prosecution found him when he arrived at the scene 20 minutes later.  The reports of where his feet were is conflicting.  Never during the trial did we know or see where the driver of the truck had landed.  Blood inside the truck on the passengers side not tested.nor were the keys to the vehicle fingerprinted.  Had either of these actions occurred, my son would not have been charged.  My son was considered guilty the moment the CHP/Witness arrived at the scene and saw my son behind the wheel, and when he ran the car and found that the registered owner had the same last name as my son, his fate was sealed.  All the pictures and evidence obtained were only to strengthen the case against my son.  Why were the names the same?, the registered owner at the time (not any more) was married to my sons biological father, which gives her the same last name as my son.  

Here's the kicker and something that the CHP officer did not know until after he gathered all of his evidence, for if he had known (and if he's an honest man) he would have taken additional pictures.  The registered owner is the biological mother of the driver that was thrown from the vehicle.  Now, the reason I am writing this report is I want a consensus from your readers as to, if they were on the jury, could have entered a verdict of guilty.  A couple of other items that were produced as evidence were the driving records of both occupants.  My sons DMV record has nothing, no drivers license ever issued, no moving violations, no tickets.  The other occupant has previous DUI convictions and a court ordered ignition interlock device that was disabled.  This driver has left the state and cannot be located.  What, would be your unbiased verdict based on the above information?  Also,  my earlier statement about the jury not of his peers was based on the fact that everyone on the jury was at least 20 years older than my son, he is 31.  I was under the impression the definition of peers was equals.  My son is not a saint and had a serious conviction as a juvenile, of which he stepped up and admitted his guilt, as I have also raised my children not to break the law but if you do, be man enough to accept the punishment when you are caught.  And, being this would have n even a first offense for him, he could have plead guilty and probably received probation, fine, couple days in jail, but, because he did nothing wrong, he thought he had nothing to worry about.  He does not remember what happened that night, he knows he was not driving for the simple fact that he never drives.  He was also going to be charged with great bodily injury( to the driver) but the jury found this to be untrue.   

Sincerely, the Liar Mom
