Dela Rosa pleads in DWI case; Judge Boyd imposes six-year probated sentence with treatment and monitoring conditions
Summary
Ray Dela Rosa entered a felony plea; Judge Stephanie Boyd followed the plea agreement and suspended a six-year sentence in favor of six years of community supervision with treatment, ignition interlock and GPS monitoring conditions.
Ray Dela Rosa appeared before Judge Stephanie Boyd and entered a plea in a third-or-more DWI (driving while intoxicated) case.
The court accepted the defendant's plea under the plea bargain and assessed punishment at six years, suspended and probated for six years. Conditions the judge ordered included a two-year driver's license suspension, a DWI education program, an ignition interlock requirement, TAP evaluation and follow-up, regular random UAs, referral to felony drug court, and a period of GPS monitoring (20 days full GPS in lieu of 10 days in county jail). The court recognized the defendant had previously served 42 days in county custody and discussed credit and monitoring issues with counsel.
The court ordered additional reporting requirements: proof of employment or disability within 45 days, 80 hours of community service restitution, and 120 sober meetings to be completed (these can begin after GPS monitoring). The judge also waived GPS fees where appropriate and tailored the terms to the defendant's medical and vision limitations, ordering no driving until cleared by a medical professional because the defendant identified a vision disability.
Judge Boyd emphasized the need for compliance and ordered probation to supervise and report on the defendant's enrollment and progress in required programs.
