Attorney Daniel Mehler argued that evidence be tossed out since lab does not do quantitative drug testing
SAN ANTONIO – A San Antonio man facing a lengthy prison sentence was instead able to get his felony drug case dismissed after his attorney called out the testing practices of the Bexar County Criminal Investigation Laboratory.
Prosecutors on May 19 dismissed the felony charge of drug possession with the intent to deliver – over 400 grams, citing insufficient evidence, court records show.
The dismissal came weeks after attorney Daniel Mehler filed a motion in the case requesting the court throw out testing evidence compiled by the lab.
