When police or prosecutors conceal significant exculpatory or impeaching material, we hold, it is ordinarily incumbent on the state to set the record straight. - Ruth Bader Ginsburg

Drunk Driving Charge After Crash, Leaving Scene, Against Chesapeake Virginia Police Officer Michael “Greg” Rowe Tossed, Despite “Sufficent” EvidencePosted by Published in VIRGINIA

CHESAPEAKE, VIRGINIA - A drunk driving charge against a city police officer was thrown out of court Tuesday - although prosecutors believed they had a strong enough case to warrant a conviction.

Officer Michael “Greg” Rowe was facing a misdemeanor DUI charge after his arrest in the early hours of May 19 on Butts Station Road. Rowe was driving his 2004 Ford Expedition when it ran off the road and hit a tree. Rowe abandoned the vehicle, police said, and was found at his home.
