He allegedly performed several field sobriety tests poorly. Stanley was reportedly unable to count forward or backward from four, could not touch the tip of his nose and couldn’t balance on one foot for longer than two seconds.

That's the problem with that old "untaxed whiskey!"
He probably had stronger solvents in the tractor than he had in the trailer!

Hey...I live about 2 minutes from there.

My current job is also located in Phipps Bend. There ain't no shortage of moonshine around here, thats for sure.

I had not heard about this...I have a buddy that works at Mundet as a press operator.
