A jury has found Rep. Bob Genetski (R-Saugatuck) guilty for driving drunk earlier this year in East Lansing.
Genetski's defense was that blood alcohol tests were conducted improperly. The jury sided with the prosecution.
More on today's verdict from the Holland Sentinel:
Rep. Bob Genetski's face betrayed no emotion as the jury foreman said "guilty," the one-word verdict in his drunken driving trial. Genetski was whisked away immediately to fulfill requirements of probation until his sentence is handed down by East Lansing District Judge David Jordon. The judge ordered Genetski to set up a substance abuse screening schedule. The lawmaker will not be talking to the media, according to his attorney, Mike Nichols.
Genetski is campaigning for a third term in Michigan's House of Representatives.
The Sentinel reports Genetski faces "having up to 6 points added to his driving record;" a $1,000 annual driver responsibility fee for two years; and being ordered to community service.
