Sheriff’s deputies to conduct DUI warrant sweep

Santa Clara County Sheriff’s deputies will be conducting a DUI warrant sweep in an effort to hold accountable those impaired driving suspects who have failed to show up to previous scheduled court dates, according to a press release from the Sheriff’s Office. Deputies will be fanning out into neighborhoods throughout the County in the coming days “in search of high-risk DUI offenders,” the press release says. The deputies will be serving warrants and arresting those who either failed to show up for a court date or violated the terms of their probation on an outstanding DUI violation.“The best bet for anyone with a missed DUI court date is to go to court on their own now,” said Sheriff’s Sgt. Rick Turini. “If you don’t, that warrant isn’t going away. We’re going to come find you and take you to jail.” DUI suspects apprehended by warrant sweep often face additional jail time for failing to appear in court or for violating probation, authorities said. Special DUI warrant service operations along with regularly scheduled “high visibility” DUI enforcement has a deterrent effect on those who disregard driving safety and abuse alcohol and drugs, police said. Funding for this operation is provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
