I-TEAM: SAPD officers who make more DWI arrests are likely to get more overtime
Ernest Acevedo III, a prominent San Antonio DWI attorney, said SAPD officers have admitted to being pressured into making arrests while under oath on the witness stand.
"When you start telling an officer he has to arrest a certain number of people, everyone should have a problem with that," Acevedo said.
He said officers with a financial motive to stay on overtime DWI patrols could run the risk of making traffic stops without probable cause.

Noted DWI lecturer and lawyer will represent Angelini:
“Whatever you make of Angelini’s actions, it’s clear the judge knows how to pick a lawyer. He’s hired DWI specialist Ernest Acevedo III…According to an Internet bio, Acevedo spoke on field sobriety testing at a 2005 conference called, ‘How to Try a DWI in Bexar County.’ The bio also indicates he’s spoken on breath testing defenses and cross-examining technical supervisors at advanced DWI seminars. Acevedo did not return messages. One lawyer describes him as media-shy, adding, ‘Ernie is one of the top DWI attorneys in town.’ District Judge Sid Harle goes further: ‘He’s become one of the premier DWI lawyers statewide. He’s had an immense amount of success.'”
