Sheriff Oldham was scheduled to be the main speaker at the Midsouth Tea Party Thursday August 28th but canceled his appearance at the last minute due to a "scheduling conflict." There are a lot of questions the public would like to have answered but one important one is "Do you support “no refusal” blood-extraction DUI checkpoints this Labor Day weekend" and if so, how does that conform with the constitution? 


How about contacting the sheriff's office to see where he stands on this issue? Here is his contact info...his phone is 901-222-5500. I will let you know what we find out, feel free to let me know what you find out by sending me an email at midsouthsentinel@gmail.com

Tennessee has a new Labor Day tradition. According to WKRN-TV, the Tennessee Highway Patrol will continue its “no refusal” blood-extraction DUI checkpoints this Labor Day weekend, starting on midnight on August 29 and continuing until midnight on September 1. Under “no refusal” enforcement, suspected drunk drivers will be forced to submit to a breathalyzer or blood test, even if they refuse.

The Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security issued a press release on this weekend’s crackdown, saying, “State troopers will conduct ‘No Refusal’ enforcement in the following counties: Union (Knoxville District); Hamilton and Marion (Chattanooga District); Montgomery (Nashville District); Shelby (Memphis District); Hawkins (Fall Branch District); Smith (Cookeville); Maury (Lawrenceburg); and Hardin County (Jackson District).” The press release also describes how police coverage will work over the weekend, “In addition to ‘No Refusal’ enforcement, highway patrol personnel will also conduct driver’s license, sobriety and seat belt checkpoints, as well as saturation patrols and bar and tavern checks.”

Due to the disputed constitutionality of police checkpoints, Tennessee state law requires that their locations be publicly announced in advance so that Tennesseans who don’t want to be inconvenienced can adjust their routes. The locations of this weekend’s checkpoints can be found at this link.
