RENO JUDGE IN JAIL AFTER BEING SENTENCED FOR DUI
A family drug court judge was in jail after he was sentenced to two days
behind bars for drunken driving.
Washoe County District Judge Charles McGee also was ordered to pay nearly
$700 in fines, attend Alcoholics Anonymous meetings five times a week,
submit to daily Breathalyzer tests for six months and attend a DUI victim
impact panel.
McGee, a district judge since 1984 and founder of the county's family drug
court, was arrested Dec. 9 after being stopped for failure to maintain a lane.
A test showed he had a blood alcohol level of .18 percent, more than twice
the legal limit of .08 percent.
