North Texas law enforcement agencies will be cracking down on drunk driving over the July 4th weekend - including taking blood samples of suspected drunk drivers. But one man says how those samples are collected is sometimes illegal.
Defense attorney Avery McDaniel said, “If an officer believes you are intoxicated they will get a search warrant and they will physically hold you down and take your blood.”
McDaniel claims that unqualified police officers forcibly took blood from his client. McDaniel said, “It should be noted that they had to physically restrain her to get the blood and the next day thereafter she had bruises up her arm from them withdrawing this blood.”

Can't the police just clip off the end of a finger? That way they have some blood and a hard copy of your fingerprints on file right there at the police station. Most people can get by w/ nubs instead of fingertips nowadays.
