Chicago DUI lawyer comments on professional courtesies diminishing in DUI arrests


This Chicago DUI lawyer has posted here and here about family members of politicians being charged with DUI’s. So imagine her surprise when Illinois Senate President John Cullerton’s son get’s charged with a DUI, in a state car earlier this morning.

April 18, Chicago, Il
The son of Illinois Senate President John Cullerton was cited with driving under the influence after he was stopped in downtown Chicago in an SUV registered to the state, authorities said.

Garritt M. Cullerton, 26, had a blood-alcohol level of 0.188 when he was pulled over in the 800 block of North Dearborn Street shortly after midnight, according to police. The level is more than twice the legal limit of 0.08.

Cullerton was cited with DUI, negligent driving and improper lane usage, police said.
He was driving a 2009 Ford Escape registered to the state Senate, according to records and police.
It just goes to show that fewer and fewer folks are getting professional courtesies.
