Listen to this articleWI Court of Appeals – District IV
Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Yancy Kevin Dieter
Case No.: 2018AP2269-CR
Officials: Blanchard, Graham, and Nashold, JJ.
Focus: OWI – Warrantless Search – Blood Test
Yancy Dieter faces criminal charges that include homicide by intoxicated use of a vehicle. The circuit court granted Dieter’s motion to suppress evidence of his blood alcohol concentration, which was obtained through a warrantless blood draw, and the State appeals. Based on the totality of the circumstances, we conclude that exigent circumstances justified the warrantless blood draw, and accordingly we reverse the suppression order.
