After delays, man faces prison for DUI
A man whose 2017 prison sentence for drunk driving has been repeatedly delayed is in jail, nearly eight years later, according to a news release issued by the Kootenai County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office.
Kenneth R. Rose pleaded guilty to aggravated DUI in October 2017. The charge stemmed from the previous summer, when Rose reportedly crossed into oncoming traffic while traveling between 85-90 mph and crashed into another vehicle, injuring the other driver. Blood testing showed his blood alcohol content was 0.107 at the time of the crash, above Idaho’s limit of 0.08, according to the prosecutor’s office.
First District Judge John Luster sentenced Rose to six years in prison with parole eligibility after one year, though First District Judge Rich Christensen later stayed execution of the sentence pending Rose’s appeal.
