  • Summary

  • Florida TV News Anchor Arrested for Drunk Driving On December 5, 2018 Florida morning news anchor Farron Salley was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence. This video presents the entirety of Salley's traffic stop, field sobriety testing, and her testy exchanges with law enforcement. Remarkably, on February 8, 2019 Assistant State Attorney Ryan G. Myers filed a memo in State of Florida v. Farron La Trice Salley, stating that "Although there was probable cause to make an arrest, the evidence cannot prove all legally required elements of the crime alleged and is insufficient to support a criminal prosecution." And with that, all charges against Salley were dropped. A copy of that filing as well as Salley's breath testing refusal is included at the end of this video. During the pendency of Salley's DUI case the WPBF anchor was suspended from her on-air duties, but when the charges against her were dropped Salley was quickly back in her former position. But the story doesn't end there. In late-June 2019 a few minutes of footage from her stop were published, resulting in WPBF "reassessing the impact of the incident." Shortly thereafter Salley resigned.
