Inmate Blames Burrito for Alcohol Breath NORTH PLATTE, Neb. - An inmate accused of violating his work release program by having alcohol on his breath says it was all in the burritos.
The judge wants to see the recipe.
Attorney Russ Jones said Monday that his client, William Dolge, 45, had burrito meat soaked in beer, which resulted in his testing positive for a low amount of alcohol about two weeks ago when he returned to jail from his job.
Lincoln County Attorney Jeff Meyer said he suspected Dolge washed the burritos down with something more than water.
District Judge John Murphy told Jones to bring the recipe — and a sample if he can — to the next hearing in the case on Aug. 6.
Dolge was granted work release while serving 364 days in jail for driving with a suspended license. Yahoo NewsROTFLMBAO!!! ;D How ol' dude could say this with a straight face is beyond me!

[glow=red,2,300]*UPDATE*[/glow] Judge Accepts Burrito-Breath ClaimNORTH PLATTE, Neb. - Those burritos do have bite.
A judge has ruled in favor of a man's claim that he had alcohol on his breath not because he drank, but due to his eating of burritos made with beer-and-tequila marinated meat.
William Dolge, 45, was accused of violating his work release for having alcohol on his breath when he returned to jail from his job last month.
After reviewing the burrito recipe, Lincoln County District Judge John Murphy agreed that the Mexican food was to blame.
"The court feels it is unnecessary to conduct a taste test of the burritos in question to determine their potency," Murphy wrote in his ruling Thursday. The list of ingredients indicates that there is sufficient alcohol in the burritos for a preliminary breath test to register positive."
Dolge ate four burritos that were brought to his work place by a fellow employee, according to court records. The recipe included one bottle of red Irish beer, 1 1/2 cups of tequila and three-quarters of a bottle of dark ale.
"No rational person would use a 'burrito' defense as a means of covering up the consumption of alcohol during a period of work release," Murphy wrote.
Dolge originally was granted work release while serving 364 days in jail for driving with a suspended license.
If Dolge's work release is reinstated, the judge advised him to limit his meal selection in the future to "less potent fare." Yahoo NewsI still say that this man should be held responsible for his actions for the simple fact that he knew that alcohol was in the burritoes. If his work release program called for him not to have any alcohol, period, then he should go by the rules. But ah well...
