Penal - Rol N° O-178-2021

The case involves Víctor Alejandro Canales Díaz who was caught driving under the influence of alcohol with a blood alcohol content of 2.73 g/L and without a driver's license. The incident occurred on August 31, 2020, on Arturo Prat street in Florida. The court qualified the offense as driving under the influence without a license, consummated. The imposed sentence was 541 days of imprisonment, a fine of 2 UTM, disqualification from public office during the sentence, and suspension of his driver's license for five years. Canales Díaz has a prior conviction for a similar offense in 2018. The court considered the mitigating factor of substantial collaboration but did not find aggravating factors. The prosecution initially sought a harsher penalty but later amended its request due to the mitigating factor. The defense accepted the facts and requested a partial nocturnal confinement as a substituted penalty. The court based its decision on the accused's acceptance of facts and the mitigating factor, as well as the evidence presented. Legal provisions cited include articles of the Traffic Law, the Penal Code, and the Code of Criminal Procedure. The substituted penalty of partial nocturnal confinement was imposed, with conditions for control and reporting. Non-compliance would lead to the full execution of the original sentence or a more severe substituted penalty. No appeals were mentioned.
