Penal - Rol N° O-5-2022

The case involves Juan Ángel Bruna Rivas, who was found guilty of driving a vehicle while intoxicated and refusing a breathalyzer test on February 13, 2021, in Viña del Mar. He was acquitted of threats. The court sentenced him to 541 days in jail, a fine, and a 5-year driving license suspension for the DUI charge, aggravated by driving without a license. He also received a fine and a 1-month suspension for refusing the breathalyzer. Bruna Rivas has prior convictions for similar offenses. The court considered the testimony of witnesses and police, as well as driving records, to establish guilt. Despite the defense's arguments, the court found sufficient evidence for the DUI and refusal charges. The threats charge was dismissed due to reasonable doubt about the seriousness of the statements. The court denied a request for a substituted sentence, citing unmet requirements.
