In this complex and emotional hearing, the court addresses the case of Ashton James Coon, a young man facing his second driving under the influence (OWI) charge in a short period. Police intercepted Coon after he was reportedly "doing donuts" in the parking lot of an old hospital late at night, with a breath test resulting in a 0.18 BAC—over twice the legal limit.
The hearing takes a dramatic turn as Coon reveals he is currently homeless, sleeping outside in freezing temperatures after his truck—which served as his home—was stolen. Despite the prosecutor's offer to reduce the charge to a first offense, Coon declares himself an "Orthodox Saint of God" and unexpectedly rejects the deal, demanding a full jury trial instead. The judge expresses deep concern for Coon's mental stability and his safety in the extreme winter cold.
