  1. Diamond v. State

    NO. 14-17-00005-CR (Tex. App. May. 3, 2018)   Cited 2 times

    Appellant's admission that she consumed three beers, along with the open container of beer in her car and her inability to answer basic questions about where she came from or what medication she had taken, were also significant indicators of intoxication. See Thom v. State, 437 S.W.3d 556, 563 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 2014, no pet.) (holding that trial court did not err in determining probable cause existed to support warrant for defendant's blood sample when the defendant "displayed many classic signs of intoxication and admitted to having consumed six beers" in spite of a breath test that registered his BAC at 0.00). Similarly, a defendant's poor performance on standardized field sobriety tests is further evidence of intoxication.
