Trooper changes breathalyzer result

A Vermont state trooper changed the results of a breath alcohol test, writing in a result of .102 when the result was actually .69. His defense when he was sued: Hey, I thought I was allowed to do that?


Sleigh said Robillard wrongly believed the law allowed him to revise Henn’s breath-test result to a figure close to what a preliminary breath test indicated at the time of the traffic stop in order to support a license-suspension citation.
