SAN ANTONIO – He calls himself the “dopest lawyer in town.”
Today, Daniel Micah Mehler is facing charges of driving while intoxicated.
Authorities say Mehler, a 40-year-old cannabis attorney, was arrested for possession of a controlled substance and suspicion of driving while intoxicated. According to a warrant, police detected a strong odor of alcohol and observed that Mehler appeared unsteady on his feet. Mehler told officers he has a speech impediment.
Mehler made bond and was released from jail just hours after his arrest.
This is not his first run-in with the law.
Records show he was previously arrested for assaulting a family member and for a DWI nearly 10 years ago.
His next court date for the current charges is scheduled for next month.
