A Washington County Circuit Court judge is scheduled for trial in Hagerstown on drunken driving charges.
Sixty-eight-year-old William Kennedy Boone III was due in district court Wednesday morning for allegedly driving under the influence when his sport-utilty vehicle sideswiped a car on a city street, causing minor injuries to the driver.
Hagerstown police say Boone blew a blood-alcohol level of 0.18 percent, more than twice the legal limit of 0.08 percent. He has expressed remorse for his actions.
Boone was appointed to a 15-year term in 1997 after stints as an assistant Maryland attorney general, assistant state’s attorney and nearly 25 years in private practice.

Honestly, what can we expect from the general populace when even those charged with upholding the law are caught driving under the influence?
