Dipstick Dilip Samaranayake ended up southbound in the northbound lane and behind bars for DUI

Sergeant Clayton Hughes reports that Officers from the Palm Desert Police Department responded to the area of Monterey Ave, north of Frank Sinatra, in the city of Palm Desert, reference a possible traffic collision.  Officers arrived and found a Red Chevrolet truck facing southbound in the northbound lanes.  A second vehicle, a white BMW, found 400 yards north on Monterey, was also involved.

Dilip Samaranayake, 33 from Cathedral City, was seen speeding northbound on Monterey. DUI Palm Desert Police Sept. 30, 2018During the course of the investigation, it was revealed the driver of the BMW, identified as Dilip Samaranayake, 33 from Cathedral City, was seen speeding northbound on Monterey.  His vehicle collided with the truck, causing it to spin and lose control.

Police say that It appears Samaranayake did not initially stop after the collision, but the damage to his vehicle was such that it was no longer drivable. It was also determined that Samaranayake was apparently driving under the influence of alcohol.

He was arrested and a McNealy warrant was issued for a blood test. Samaranayake was taken to a local hospital for an OK to book and subsequently booked at the county jail in Indio.

Anyone with information on this incident is encouraged to call the Palm Desert Police Department at (760) 826-1600.

Mississippi:  DUI arrest bookings for Nov. 24, 2018, Lauderdale County Jail booking report. 

Mississippi: Driver Shelley Rose that was wrong way on I-59 and killed two others and herself in crash racked up fourth DUI in a few days prior to Thanksgiving Day mayhem

From Clarion-Ledger: 

Shelley Rose was arrested Nov. 20, 2018, by the Lauderdale County Sheriff’s Department for her fourth offense felony DUI. She was released from the county detention center on a $10,000 bond about eight hours later.

Lauderdale County Chief Deputy Ward Calhoun said deputies arrested the 48-year-old Rose after the department received calls about the possibly intoxicated driver of a Dodge Caravan. Witnesses said Rose allegedly drove off the roadway and sideswiped a concrete parking barrier.

 After she bailed out of the Lauderdale Detention Center, records show the Ellisville Police Department in Jones County arrested Rose the next day, on Nov. 21, on a public drunkenness charge. Ellisville is about an hour south of Meridian on I-59.

Rose was released without bail later that night, according to the Jones County Sheriff’s Department website.

Less than two days later, Rose was heading north on I-59 when her Dodge Caravan collided head-on into Bright’s Saturn Ion and Vincent’s Nissan Altima.  A southbound Honda CRV then crashed into the Saturn and rolled over into the wood line, according to the Mississippi Highway Patrol. The agency is investigating the crash.

Turnage, who was preparing Thanksgiving dinner when he was called to the crash scene, said several witnesses who saw Rose driving the wrong way called 911, hoping to prevent an accident. But it was too late.

In Mississippi, a third DUI is a felony for anyone with two convictions if the first two DUI charges occurred within the previous five years. A third offense carries a sentence of one to five years.

Last year, the law changed to make a fourth offense, no matter the time period involved, a felony punishable by a minimum prison sentence of two years, with a maximum of 10.

Still, some in law enforcement say their hands are tied by the slowness of the court system in putting these cases together. And getting information from jurisdictions where previous DUI offenses have occurred is still a challenge, Lauderdale County Sheriff Billie Sollie said.

“In these cases, there’s a lot of post-incident reports to be conducted. Part of the problem is getting these cases for the prosecution. There can be multiple counties and jurisdictions involved and it’s not easy getting that information through the courts,” he said. MORE

James E. Betts charged with 4th DUI arrest in Seaford Delaware on Nov. 20, 2018 crash head-on injured three people. DSP

SEAFORD, DEL.– There is little doubt that the lenient Judges in Delaware are more concerned about the excuses and whines of drunk and drugged drivers than they are about the bleeding and dying of the general public.

The Delaware State Police have arrested a Seaford man for his 4th offense DUI and multiple counts of Vehicular Assault after he was involved in a crash.

Police say that James E. Betts, 50, of Seaford, Delaware, has now been charged following his stay at a hospital.

The crash that injured Betts and his three victims in another vehicle occurred on November 20, 2018, at approximately 9:05 p.m. when Troopers were dispatched to a crash at the intersection of Stein Highway and Neals School Road involving two vehicles.

Police say that a Subaru Forester was traveling eastbound on Stein Highway and entered into the westbound lane striking a Ford Explorer nearly head-on.

Betts was the operator of the Forester and was transported to the Nanticoke Memorial Hospital with serious injuries.  Troopers located drug paraphernalia inside of the vehicle.

The operator of the Explorer, a 28-year-old male from Maryland and his 27-year-old female passenger sustained injuries and were transported to the Nanticoke Memorial Hospital. Two children ages 7 and 5, who were seated in the rear of the vehicle sustained major injuries and were also transported to the Nanticoke Memorial Hospital.  The 7-year-old was later transferred to the A.I. DuPont Hospital.

Police say that a computer check revealed that Betts had three previous DUI arrests making this his fourth offense. On November 30, 2018, Betts was charged with the following:

• 4th Offense Driving a Vehicle Under the Influence
• Vehicular Assault First Degree (2 counts)
• Vehicular Assault Second Degree (2 counts)
• Possession of Drug Paraphernalia

Betts was arraigned before the Justice of the Peace Court 2 and committed to the Sussex Correctional Institution on $13,001.00 secured bond.

BETTS GUILTY IN MARYLAND DWI ARREST

On Nov. 2, 1998, James E. Betts pleaded guilty to possession of drugs in a plea deal with the Dorchester County States Attorney in District Court in Salisbury, Md.  Betts was arrested by Natural Resources Police Officer J. Massey on June 24, 1998. THE DEAL: twenty days in jail was suspended, he was put on probation, violated his probation and was jailed on Sept. 21, 2000.

James Edward Betts Jr., of 9891 Middleford Road, Seaford, Del., was arrested on Nov. 13, 1999, for DWI – alcohol or drugs and entered a guilty plea on April 2, 2001, in a plea deal with Wicomico County States Attorney Davis R. Ruark. THE DEAL: 30 days in jail and one year of probation.

Several years later, Ruark, the prosecutor who let Betts slide with an easy plea deal, was himself arrested for DUI in Ocean City, Md. Wicomico County States Attorney Davis Ruark appeared in Ocean City District Court for trial stemming from his February 22, 2008, DUI arrest.

As the result of a plea agreement with Special Prosecutor Thomas M. Degonia, Ruark pleads guilty to DUI. In exchange for the guilty plea, the charges for handgun violation were dropped.

Retired District Court Judge John Coolahan (Baltimore County) accepted the conditions of the plea agreement and found Ruark Guilty of DUI.

Ruark was fined $500.00 plus court costs and put on unsupervised probation for one year. Ruark surrendered his handgun carry permit and was later allowed to have it reinstated. Ruark was defeated for reelection in the 2010 Democratic Primary and in 2012 moved to New Mexico where he works as a prosecutor.

Lakeport Police

CALIFORNIA: Angela Fife wouldn’t freeze to death if she was walking across the North Pole in a bikini – she was 5 times legal limit when busted for DUI by Lakeport Police

blood alcohol level of .40%

LAKEPORT, CALIF. – A wild driver was arrested for DUI On December 4th at approximately 5:15 PM an off-duty Lakeport Police Department (LPD) Officer was driving a personal vehicle on Lakeshore Blvd. in the 2000 Block. The Officer saw a silver Chevrolet Impala driving south on Lakeshore Blvd and noticed it was weaving and in the bicycle lane and on the roadway shoulder. The Officer then saw the vehicle go into the opposite lane head-on toward another vehicle.

Not being able to stop the Impala, the Officer called in the vehicle and requested assistance for a drunk driver stop. While waiting for other LPD Officers, the off-duty Officer continued to follow the Impala and make observations. The Impala continued to travel dangerously and in the area of South Main Street and Lupoyoma Ave., it went through a crosswalk with a Pedestrian trying to cross.

On-duty Officers were responding in an emergency manner in order to get into position to stop the Impala and were able to stop it in the 300 Block of Lakeport Blvd.

DRIVER WAS NEARLY PICKLED!

The driver and sole occupant was identified as 44-year-old Lakeport resident Angela Fife. Officers determined that Fife was in fact intoxicated with a blood alcohol level of .40% which is 5 times .08% which is the limit where a person is presumed to be intoxicated while driving in California.

Because of her high blood alcohol content, Fife had to be taken to a local hospital for medical clearance before she could be booked into the jail.

After clearance, Fife was transported to the Lake County Jail and booked for driving under the influence, driving with .08% or more alcohol in the blood, driving with alcohol in the blood while on probation for driving under the influence of alcohol, driving with a drivers license suspended for a previous driving under the influence arrest, for having a third driving under the influence arrest within the past 10 years, for driving a vehicle not equipped with an ignition interlock device as previously ordered by a court to ensure she did not drive while under the influence and for an outstanding warrant from Sonoma County for driving with a license suspended for driving under the influence.

Lakeport California Police Chief Brad Rasmussen notes that two DUI drivers have crashed in Lakeport in the past week and urges drivers to make better decisions.

Posting on Facebook, Chief Brad Rasmussen said, “We appreciate our Officers work to remove as many intoxicated drivers as we can from our roadways and are glad this driver was not able to hurt or kill someone.”

Chief Brad Rasmussen said, “During the Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year season we tend to see increases in drunk driving and will be increasing our efforts to arrest these persons. We ask for the public’s assistance in being alert for drunk drivers and calling 911 to report them when observed.”

FLORIDA: Ricardo Galvan Ojeda charged with DUI by Florida Highway Patrol after he blew stop sign, slammed into a pickup and killed passenger in the truck

A man now facing serious felony charges is accused of driving under the influence Saturday, Oct. 19, 2019, for crashing into a pickup truck, killing a female passenger, according to Florida Highway Patrol.

Police say that Ricardo Galvan Ojeda was driving his Chevrolet Silverado east on Emeralda Island Road around 8:30 p.m. when he ran a stop sign and slammed into a Toyota Tacoma that was traveling south on County Road 452, said FHP spokeswoman Lt. Kim Montes.

The driver of the Tacoma, 57-year-old William Hodges of Grand Island, was critically injured and taken to Central Florida Regional Hospital, Montes said. Police say that his wife, 54-year-old Denise Hodges, died at the scene.

Ojeda told a trooper at the crash site that he was headed to a friend’s house and that he drank two beers about three hours before the collision, according to the arrest report.

The trooper noted in the report that Ojeda “seemed very confused,” mumbled as he spoke and smelled faintly of alcohol.

Previously removed alien charged with killing upstate New York resident in DUI incident

Alien was arrested last month for DUI;
ICE was not notified of his release

AUBURN, New York – U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) filed a detainer Nov. 12, against a repeat immigration violator Guatemalan national Heriberto Perez-Velasquez with the Cayuga County Sheriff’s Office, where he is currently detained after being arrested for vehicular homicide. Perez-Velasquez was arrested a month earlier by New York State Police on DUI charges and released from state custody on an appearance ticket with no notification to ICE.

“Had Mr. Perez-Velasquez been detained by ICE after his October 2019, DUI arrest, a life might have been spared,” said Acting ICE Director Matt Albence. “Sanctuary jurisdictions that do not honor detainers or allow us access to jails and prisons are shielding criminal aliens from immigration enforcement and jeopardizing the lives of law-abiding citizens.”

By releasing an illegal alien with a history of driving under the influence, state authorities chose to release a serious public safety threat into the community where he is now implicated in a vehicular homicide.

“Had Mr. Perez-Velasquez been detained by ICE after his October 2019, DUI arrest, a life might have been spared,” said Acting ICE Director Matt Albence. “Sanctuary jurisdictions that do not honor detainers or allow us access to jails and prisons are shielding criminal aliens from immigration enforcement and jeopardizing the lives of law-abiding citizens.”

“The Buffalo Field Office’s robust enforcement programs are focused at making upstate New York communities safe from dangerous criminal aliens and those that look to exploit our nation’s immigration laws,” said ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations Buffalo Field Office Director Thomas Feeley. “The staff of the Buffalo Field Office works tirelessly to ensure that the upstate communities don’t become a safe haven for criminals.”

Perez-Velasquez, an illegal alien from Guatemala, was arrested by the U.S. Border Patrol on May 11, 2007, and removed to his home country later that month. Perez illegally re-entered the country at an unknown date. On Oct. 18, 2019, New York State Police arrested Perez for resisting arrest, DUI, and other charges. Perez was released from state custody on an appearance ticket and ICE was never notified.

On Nov. 10, 2019, the Cayuga County Sheriff’s Office arrested Perez for vehicular manslaughter, driving while intoxicated, and leaving the scene of a personal injury accident. On Nov. 12, 2019, ICE lodged a detainer and warrant of removal with the sheriff’s office on Perez.

New York State policy severely limits state and local law enforcement cooperation with ICE and requires a judicial warrant to honor most ICE detainers.

Perez was released from state custody on an appearance ticket and ICE was never notified.

Under the Immigration and Nationality Act as passed by Congress, ICE detainers, removal orders issued by federal immigration judges, and ICE immigration enforcement in general, is conducted under civil law. The “judicial warrant” demand only applies to criminal cases and does not exist for civil law matters.

In Fiscal Year 2018, the Buffalo Field Office made 1,582 arrests in the 48-county region – approximately 80 percent of those individuals either had a prior criminal conviction or came into ICE custody pursuant to their criminal arrest on pending charges. These statistics make clear that the agency conducts targeted enforcement focused first on criminals and public safety threats.

About Detainers

Under federal law, ICE has the authority to lodge immigration detainers with law enforcement partners who have custody of individuals arrested on criminal charges and who ICE has probable cause to believe are removable aliens. The detainer form asks the other law enforcement agency to notify ICE in advance of release and to maintain custody of the alien for a brief period of time so that ICE can take custody of that person in a safe and secure setting upon release from that agency’s custody. Yet, across the United States, several jurisdictions refuse to honor detainers and instead choose to willingly release criminal offenders back into their local communities where they are free to offend.

When law enforcement agencies fail to honor immigration detainers and release a criminal alien onto the streets, it negatively impacts public safety.

Sanctuary Policies Put Public Safety at Risk

• Sanctuary policies leave ICE with no choice but to increase enforcement in neighborhoods and workplaces to locate and arrest these persons while they are at-large – increasing the likelihood that other individuals previously not targeted for arrest will be taken into ICE custody.
• It is safer for everyone if ICE takes custody of an alien in the controlled environment of another law enforcement agency as opposed to visiting an alien’s residence, place of work, or other public area. Arresting a criminal in the safety, security, and privacy of a jail is always the best option.
• When law enforcement agencies don’t honor ICE detainers, these individuals, who often have significant criminal histories, are released onto the street, presenting a potential public safety threat
