Man charged with 4th OWI in 5 years
A 44-year-old Boscobel man has been charged in Crawford County Circuit Court with one count of operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated (fourth offense in five years), and one count of operating while revoked.
Jeffrey John Faulkner faces up to seven years in prison and $12,500 in fines if convicted of both counts.
According to the criminal complaint, Faulkner parked his vehicle approximately 4.5 feet from the curb on a road in the town of Seneca.
Faulkner admitted to the deputy that he had consumed 12 or 13 Miller Lite beers. Following field tests, Faulkner was placed under arrest for OWI and transported to Crossing Rivers Health for a blood test. He was later transported to the Crawford County Jail.
Faulkner has previously been convicted of OWI three times.
