Farmington Daily Times — A 12-time convicted drunken driver on Tuesday attempted to take back his no-contest Alford plea to aggravated drunken driving after learning the judge was going to sentence him to the maximum. He said he would rather take his chances at trial. Anthony Chee, 38, was arrested Oct. 16 for drinking and driving after police witnessed him swerving and driving slowly on 18th Street in Farmington. His blood-alcohol content at the time registered a .21, almost three times the legal limit of .08, according to court records. Police also discovered that Chee was out on parole for a drunken driving conviction in 2010, and this arrest was his 12th drinking and driving offense. Read full story here: News New Mexico
