Report: Off-Duty NYPD Detective Had Blood Alcohol Level Twice Legal Limit



(The Bronx, NY)  --  A new report indicates the NYPD Detective, accused of mowing down a Bronx grandmother last week, had blood alcohol level more than two times the legal driving limit. 

Off-duty Detective Kevin Spellman had a .21-blood alcohol content from a blood sample drawn more than five-and-a-half-hours after the deadly accident. 

The 42-year-old detective faces drunk driving, vehicular homicide, and criminally negligent homicide charges. 

Spellman refused to take a Breathalyzer test at the scene and a court order was needed for a blood test. 

Spellman is accused of striking and killing 67-year-old Drana Nikac on Kingsbridge Avenue in the Kingsbridge section last Friday. 

He is free on 100-thousand-dollars bail.

Pray for Us


U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder testified before the senate judiciary committee and basically shrugged when asked if any other enemy combatant captured overseas had ever been brought to civilian criminal court to face justice. Talk about an incompetent boob, not to mention a disgrace.
