The Prosecuting Attorneys Association of Michigan will present the Traffic Safety Training Program Webinar “Alcohol Plus Anything Equals Everything” on Thursday, February 19, from noon to 1 p.m. via Zoom.
The face of drunk driving is ever changing in Michigan. Drivers are arrested on Michigan roadways with a staggering variety of different controlled substances present in their system, many times in conjunction with alcohol. In this one-hour webinar, Dr. Joey Jones, author of “Alcohol Plus Anything Equals Everything,” will apply his decades-long experiences and multiple real-life case studies to explore the topic of combining alcohol with other drugs, medications, or even food to give prosecutors and law enforcement a better understanding of how alcohol affects the brain, body, and public safety.
Topics that will be covered during this webinar will include:
• An Overview of Alcohol and Its Effects with Various Other Substances.
• A Review of the Limbic System in the Human Body and How these Substance Can Wreak Havoc to the Operation of the Human Brain, including Hypnotic and Sedative Effects.
• A Review of Therapeutic Concentrations of Alcohol, including a Discussion of Plasma/Serum versus Whole Blood.
• A Discussion about Retrograde Extrapolation and Other Courtroom Calculations.
This will be a 1-hour long presentation that will be suitable for law enforcement, prosecutors, and assistant prosecutors who investigate and prosecute individuals for Operating While Intoxicated and Impaired Driving.
