Chargers’ Williams Apparently Not Out Of The Woods Yet

On Tuesday, Chargers.com reported that defensive tackle Jamal Williams would not be charged with DUI because his blood alcohol concentration tested at an amount less than the legal limit of 0.08 percent following his February arrest. The media hadn’t picked up on the story. And we were confused by that. We’re suddenly no longer confused. For a change. According to the San Diego Union-Tribune, Williams is not yet out of the woods. His blood sample showed a 0.07 BAC, only one one-hundredth of a percentage below the legal maximum. Because the blood was drawn “well after” the arrest, it’s possible -- if not likely -- that Williams was legally drunk at the time he was driving. Gina Coburn, a spokesperson for the San Diego city attorney, said that the matter is not closed. “We try to make filing decisions as soon as possible after the arrest, but sometimes further investigation takes time, such as in this case,” Coburn told the Union-Tribune.
