Huh?

It pays to have friends in high places:

A jury has cleared Assistant U.C. Basketball Coach Keith Legree of a drunken driving charge. The jury found Legree not guilty after deliberating just seven minutes. Cincinnati Police pulled Legree over back in March on Central Parkway.

The breath test was ruled inadmissible at trial, because it did not yield a sufficient sample. Jurors also viewed police video recording the traffic stop, but apparently could not conclude he was intoxicated based on what they saw on the video.

The video showed Legree slumped over in his car...and the police officers had to violently shake his car to awaken him from his "slumber". You be the judge.
