Rep. Jeffrey Wood was arrested for the third time in less than a year on suspicion of drunk driving Tuesday. The Wisconsin assemblyman was videotaped while performing sobriety tests when he was pulled over this week, where he falls after being told to walk in a straight line. A state aide reported today that the Wisconsin rep will enter an intensive rehab program.
The state aide confirmed that she did not know whether Wood would resign, but commented that he would not be seeking re-election. A committee has also been reportedly formed to consider expelling him from the post he’s held since 2002.
Sources say the 40-year-old state rep entered an outpatient rehab program last December, and even an inpatient program just last month. He is married and has 3 children. He is said to be enrolling in a 30- or 45-day treatment program.
