OWI – Admittance of Evidence – Blood Test
By: Derek Hawkins//July 28, 2020//
Listen to this articleWI Court of Appeals – District IV
Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Christopher Drew Helwig
Case No.: 2019AP448-CR
Officials: GRAHAM, J.
Focus: OWI – Admittance of Evidence – Blood Test
Christopher Helwig appeals a judgment convicting him of operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated (OWI). During his trial, the circuit court admitted evidence of his blood alcohol concentration test result without requiring testimony from the registered nurse who collected the sample of his blood. On appeal, Helwig argues that the court erred by admitting evidence of the test result, and also by admitting a form that documents basic details about the arrest and the blood draw. I reject Helwig’s arguments and affirm the circuit court.
