Lynch was formally charged with DUI on Wednesday in Alameda County, Calif. He registered a .08 blood-alcohol content, which the state considers legally intoxicated, when stopped by police early Saturday morning. Golde raised issues with the two separate blood-alcohol tests administered to Lynch. The second test, given some 40 minutes later, registered a higher .10 blood-alcohol content on Lynch, Golde said. The California Highway Patrol -- which also gave Lynch "multiple field sobriety tests," according to its report -- defended the results of the blood-alcohol tests. ... Meanwhile, Golde said the outcome will be "very positive" for Lynch, despite the DUI charge. We'll see.
