Randy Travis' DWI Blood Alcohol Results Released

SHERMAN, Texas (AP) -- Blood alcohol results show country star Randy Travis was legally drunk when he was arrested naked following a traffic accident in Texas.

Grayson County District Attorney Joe Brown says Travis was formally charged Wednesday with driving while intoxicated with a blood alcohol level greater than 0.15. The legal limit for driving in Texas is 0.08. The Class A misdemeanor is punishable by up to two years in jail and a $4,000 fine.

Travis was arrested on a DWI charge and freed on bond following the Aug. 7 single-vehicle accident near Tioga, about 60 miles north of Dallas. Brown says negotiations continue to resolve the case. Travis still faces a retaliation charge for allegedly threatening officers.

An attorney for Travis did not immediately return messages Friday.

His lawyer stated in November that Randy had quit drinking and got himself straight. I guess his lawyer forgot to tell Randy.

This is such a shame. You can't help but wonder what set him off and sent him whirling out of control. Where are his pastor and Christian friends he has spoken about so often.....appearing on religious television shows, etc.. Could the end of his marriage be the cause or could this be the cause of the end of his marriage!
